The idea of the story is a bit old-fashioned, and even the bloody scenes can't make the film have too many surprises. Apart from some shooting scenes in the story, there are not too many touching scenes, but after all, Jean Reno's acting skills are not false. His calm eyes, subtle twitches at the corners of his mouth, and coherent movements still carry the killer Leon. The shadow on the body, the precision of the marksmanship during revenge are also like Lyon's ability, the warmth to children and the adherence to personal principles are like Lyon's no women, no kids. In the end, in order to save the child, the shot of the boss passing through the barbed wire with difficulty makes people feel that this killer is just an ordinary person after all.
The accompanying classical melody culminates with the firing of 22 bullets. When the bullet was surgically removed, interspersed with the plot of another slain godfather in the past, the accompaniment of classical music was still played.
Reynolds' character reminds me of Marlon Brando's Corleone in The Godfather. In contrast, it still feels that Renault's performance still lacks some layers of complexity.
