At any rate, there was a good chance the possibility of a random kid knocking on his door like that was extremely low, so it was extra suspicious that this happened after the wave of drug dealer killings or after he got a hit on him (if he had an idea about that, which sometimes may be true).
A dealer would not react to that knock ever. However, the scenes this movie presents are marbles on a string, because they convey very specific feelings and human interaction in a well-known but fictionary world.
Léon and Mathilda taking out all the drugdealers and criminals in town. They censored and left this scene out of the movie but it's available in the Director's Cut.
What he says, "That's the ring trick." What she actually hears, "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"
I always laugh at people having conversations during, or immediately after, a gunfight. No hearing protection = no hearing. "EEEEEEEEEE" is all you hear for quite a while.
I bought the DVD when it came out. One of that decade better movies. Me and my daughter watch it. She was then in the early teens. She is tougher than most.
@yortzandat whats wrong watching action movies with the kids ? Does that meen we shouldnt be watching horror together either as that was of our fav sjanger ? Stupid comment.from you.
A truly unforgettable masterpiece, and a touching film. With such a perfect cast of the Underrated Jean Reno, Natalie Portman, Gary Oldman, and so many others, it literally created a film that was perfect with such a strong emotional, action-packed storyline and what a soundtrack. Honestly, one of the very few films, that you can truly say has no flaws, and one that everyone can agree is perfect. With such a low budget to work with, created a true masterpiece, A film, that'll never be forgotten.
I watched it just today on Netflix and this scene was in the movie, one of the more memorable ones. They must've added it back. Really good movie, definitely one of my favorites.
i don't understand how i've been on youtube since this video was posted and only just now i'm seeing this... after having seen The Professional like 100 times.
As much as i love this scene and the whole "Ring trick" Even though the ring trick was a last resort to finish the hit, Leon says to Mathilda during her training never to shoot or ruin the face because "if the client cant recognize the face then you don't get paid", Still love this movie to death though, one of my favorites.
This movie has a lot of great set ups and pay offs. Like when you notice that he always does sit ups for the purpose of dangling off the ceiling better.
I love that my fav movie was filmed in NYC. Even the finale shootout and explosion was filmed in a building on Broadway & 159th Street. It's still there, only the door entrance was replaced. The front columns are still original from the time of filming!
The uncut version is so much better and much more risqué. The times Matilda tries to have him kiss her, boink her etc, I can understand why they cut those out.
What i love about old school movies is of course the actual acting but also they dont tell you the connections of movies from that era. Go watch La Femme Nakita. Basically part two of this movie.
+laszlo pasztor, you're right. Netflix censored scenes from the movie. I've read that the film was released in its entirety in Europe but originally censored for American audiences. Americans are far more prudish and judgmental and it was felt that a censored, toned down version would have more appeal with them.
DARTH DRACONIAN Tbh... With some of those scenes the movie had a bad twist, like she and Leon were in love and not in a fatherly cute way... But in a creepy way. The director even wanted to put a sex scene, and a shower scene of Portman... Hell no, this scene was cool but some the other are not.
One of the greatest scenes of the movie. The blast confuses Mathilda. It shows us that she is still a child even if her behavior is more of an adult. Growing in an dysfunctional environment is the main reason.
Such a masterpiece, like literally, a master piece. A film with so much build-up, filled with raw emotions and feelings with a film that is truly memorable, unforgettable, legendary, and filled with emotions that you honestly can't help but feel alongside the characters & the emotional story behind it, especially what happens at the end which just makes this film turn to a sudden turn of just pure sadness especially with the build-up & how emotionally intense it was. A film & song where its just pure black and white, a film & song that has such strong emotions & feelings from/to your heart. Its a film where you just feel pure raw emotion as if you're the character or if you're seeing it first hand in person. A film with such a perfect selection of a cast with such underrated actors such as Jean Reno, Natalie Portman debuting in her first ever film which launched her acting career, Gary Oldman, and so many others. A film with such an emotional bond that you honestly can't explain it fully, its something that you honestly have to feel it to experience it. Its a film that's meant to be experienced through emotion, not through explanation just like Leon whenever you would see his character's facial expressions of what he would feel, like the amount of strong emotion behind it, is incredible, especially towards the end of the movie where you'd expect it to end off in a happy ending but it ends sadly. It can't be described fully in words, just through your own heart & emotion, especially with how perfect the film was, like there's no flaws with it. It's a film filled with strong emotional, action-packed storyline and soundtracks that honestly make you feel sad for Leon and Mathilda as if you're a part of them. Jean Reno truly nailed the performance like hes so underrated, and it really shows the amount of talent Natalie had which started her career in one of the greatest films of all time like all the roles were nailed perfectly. Its just a masterpiece. Not only that but this movie didn't have much of a budget either, and it turned out to be so successful and one of the greatest films of all time, which you can't deny, its something that everyone agrees on, like it or not, it is. Luc Besson the director literally nailed it & also proved how even at the time you didn't need that need such a huge budget to accomplish these things, and what an era it was, and what a big name for European Films if not the greatest European film, in comparison with American films that need such a big budget to accomplish the effects, it really shows the difference between the two as all thats needed is raw emotion. Such a masterpiece, a film like I said filled with such an emotional bond that you honestly can't explain it fully, its something that you honestly have to feel it to experience it. Truly unforgettable, memorable and much more. I honestly wish it got more credit that it was unfortuantely given, it honestly deserved so much credit, especially an award for Jean Leno and his performance. Such a perfect selection, such a perfect story, film, and of course music selection. One of the few films where you experience raw emotion, and feelings. Like even the trailer itself is just amazing. A film that you honestly feel through your heart, its just heartfelt like the emotions of the film just go through your heart and makes you feel it as if you're one of the characters especailly as Leon and Maltithda, and not only that but heartbroken as well, especially at the end of the film where you see a flash of light slowly entering and then fading away knowing that hes passed & finally achieved the peace he wanted, while also having something to loose for, and love with actual roots being placed - a meaning for him which was Maltithda. Like even now, when I watched this movie, I still feel the emotions thats how strong it is, its attached, especially every time when you look back to it and it always hits you over and over again. Like it's just unexplainable, you can try your best to explain it, but its something you just gotta feel for yourself like I said and its so emotionally intense. 5 stars. A film that literally hit me hard so many times in my feelings, and made me realize the true meanings of love & life, purpose. regret, change and gave me a perspective, a will, a reason, change - everything. It literally has so many messages, and feelings, of dreams, hopes, and roots. Like man this film just changes you, pure chills, pure tears, pure emotion, pure sadness and much more as well. So much to say, its honestly endless, with so many emotions & feelings.
Major mistake here 2:17 the guy inside the apartment can easily see him though the bullet holes as he blocks light to pass through them in reality Leon would be dead plain and simple Great movie thou
At 2:26 you don't see any holes from the inside. So you are incorrect in assuming that the bad guy can see Leon. He can't see anything. Well... he does see a flash for a split second when Leon shows him what the "Ring Trick" is. So the "Major mistake" is on your part.

The original movie all of these knock offs came from was extremely good and also a Luc Besson movie. Dark, edgy, tense. La Femme Nikita - the French original, not that crap American copy with a typical Hollywood pretty blonde actress playing the part (can't remember her name now damn it.)

DNA where? If the police don't have Mathilda as a suspect then they can't match the gum residue to her. And the finger print? So many people touch the doorbell you would never be able to pull off a clean print. Imagine a dozen peoples prints all mashed onto just one button. What else?
It's a fucking movie, nobody cares if it's a little away from the truth, it's like watching a magic trick and trying to figure it out... this scene is still awesome.
This scene is incredible. And I just read a comment saying how the director's cut version is over two hours long... feels like I've been 'had' because I bought the theatrical cut 😅😂😝 Also, I second a comment stating how bloody paranoid someone must be, in order to be THAT on edge that they suspect a child is out to get them 🤨🤣
I actually like that they cut this It seems out of place. Leon to me always wanted to keep her out of this stuff, and this also puts her directly in danger. Plus, it also seems distant from the main plot line
The ring trick. Once you pull the pin on the grenade you hold the handle till it will explode in 1 second so the guy can not grab it and throw it back to seek cover. Boom.
Yeah they call it cooking. That's standard handling procedure you learn in the military (and probably elsewhere too for whoever would want to use grenades).
Advice for would-be criminals: If you want to get in a building where you need to be "buzzed in" through a main door by a resident, ring every single apartment buzzer on the panel as fast as you can and just wait quietly. Large residential complexes usually have one or two residents who automatically "buzz open" the door without asking who is there because they're expecting someone they know.
I felt that there is something more about the "ring" that Leon gave to Stansfield in the last scene. Then i watched uncut version and it became clear :)

Everyone would be on edge by the time this went down.
Moreover, there's a good chance he lived in a neighborhood where aren't many kids or, if there are any, they knew not to be that naive. Or maybe he simply was an unapproachable person who scared away kids and soft people and the only people who would know on his door are his business acquaintances.

1:52 this is actually Leon remembering himself using a similar weapon and he recognizes the sound.
This is described in the original script.

Damn, I didn't know there was a directors cut!! Now I want to see that.
That little in the dark camera shot at 2:02 man
Santafunk it can either be explained as eerie, or utterly savage. Went out like a champ tho
Dammit is that luc besson the director??
@@anjelicavioletta3012 yes , jeez good eye
.. ..
Will have to rewatch its been awhile and forget this scene
As I always tell people; If ye haven't seen The Directors Cut? Ye haven't seen Leon! (And, yeah, it's on the shelf behind me! :D )
The ring trick. This one is bound to blow you away!
*bomb goes off*
Neighbours: must be Jimmy with his big stupid speakers.
I've seen this movie maybe 4-5 times, why am I not remember any of this Door, Gum, cutting chain business
Probably you didn't watch the director's cut. It expands a lot the movie.
@@PhlilipeAlves guess that means I have few more viewing then
@@leonarmstrong5589 yes, you should whatch it. The film is 2:12:43 long.
@@PhlilipeAlves you're solid guy 👍🏽
1:54-and that's why this guy never gets UPS packages.
Maybe he does, but they're always full of holes !
Wonderful movie with one of the most charming french actors*smiles
Damn, I've never seen this piece before!
Love this film,first time i have seen this scene
I can't help but say to myself "finger prints and DNA evidence everywhere!!" 😂
DNA where? If the police don't have Mathilda as a suspect then they can't match the gum residue to her. And the finger print? So many people touch the doorbell you would never be able to pull off a clean print. Imagine a dozen peoples prints all mashed onto just one button. What else?
"watchu doing" ?
"cant afford to catch the covid"
Am I going nuts?
Un version que debió ser incluida 💛
“Ring trick” is a very ESL way to refer to popping a grenade. Then again it could’ve been deliberately obscure to confuse the guy.
It's a fucking movie, nobody cares if it's a little away from the truth, it's like watching a magic trick and trying to figure it out... this scene is still awesome.
Leon: Don’t shoot them in the face, if the client can’t recognize the target you don’t get payed.
Also Leon:
Hey he had no other choice here
Well, there goes his security deposit.
DPS will find in favour of the tenant and return it mate.
This movie was cut to bits in the TV and Netflix versions. If you want to see it as Luc Besson intended get the director’s cut
A Spectre M4 SMG. That's a rare sight...
Worth it just for that. I've owned a SITES Spectre pistol for 30 years and never saw one in a movie til now.
Gary Oldman knows the Ring Trick
They need to do a sequel to this with Matilda grown-up.
Guy starts firing again at 2:18...

LOL! MY favorite movie of all time!!!!!
Léon is an amazing movie
This scene is incredible. And I just read a comment saying how the director's cut version is over two hours long... feels like I've been 'had' because I bought the theatrical cut 😅😂😝
Also, I second a comment stating how bloody paranoid someone must be, in order to be THAT on edge that they suspect a child is out to get them 🤨🤣
I tried this trick on my exes door...didn't work out like this
you definitely failed and have no one to blame but yourself.
I like he hugs to protect the girl.
leaving dna on every victims doorstep. literally
NYC cops didnt care back then, sloppy investigative work
NYPD did'nt even know about fingerprints at the time (just joking)
@@CaptainDangeax I don't think they would care since it's just a little girl after all
I actually like that they cut this
It seems out of place. Leon to me always wanted to keep her out of this stuff, and this also puts her directly in danger. Plus, it also seems distant from the main plot line
Neighbours didn't seem to be interested in what happens next door :P
The ring trick. Once you pull the pin on the grenade you hold the handle till it will explode in 1 second so the guy can not grab it and throw it back to seek cover. Boom.
you always do that with grenades it's standard procedure not really a "trick".
I believe the term you're looking for is cooking
Yeah they call it cooking. That's standard handling procedure you learn in the military (and probably elsewhere too for whoever would want to use grenades).
@@bigbilly2052the way it was instructed to me was that its basically giving a gift and no receipt so they can't return it
No receipt lol that's funny.
Advice for would-be criminals: If you want to get in a building where you need to be "buzzed in" through a main door by a resident, ring every single apartment buzzer on the panel as fast as you can and just wait quietly. Large residential complexes usually have one or two residents who automatically "buzz open" the door without asking who is there because they're expecting someone they know.
leon shouldn't have stood in front of the bullet holes, the guy would've seen the light blotting out and shot him
Richie Aprile clearly not
its a movie bro not real life.
I felt that there is something more about the "ring" that Leon gave to Stansfield in the last scene. Then i watched uncut version and it became clear :)
She lost her gum on that last one. Gonna hafta start chewin' on a new piece now.
I’m surprised this clip is uploaded 15 years ago.
and she fainted when Anakin killed some kids.
She left that life behind when she was a cleaners assistant.
Queen seemed like a better gig
WHY DID THEY LEAVE THIS OUT OF THE THEATRICAL VERSION? IT’S BRILLIANT!
Yeah the version I saw was too 'gappy' had a lot of shit missing.
Only in "Leon"....not in the US theatrical version: The Professional
