Mi película de acción favorita
It's always great to be able to talk about our favorite movies in different genres, and that's why I decided to join this contest:
Mi película de acción favorita
If I'm honest with you this genre is definitely not my favorite, I've seen many action movies, but, it still doesn't manage to surpass others. I don't have a favorite movie, of any genre to be more clear, so my choice is based on how much I enjoyed it and that I had another one in mind but I didn't remember the name no matter how hard I looked hahaha.
This film is from 1994 and stars: Natalie Portman (this being her first film), Jean Reno, Gary Oldman, among others. With several nominations for the "César Awards in 1995", it became a cult classic according to the author Marc Spitz.
Leon (Jean Reno), is a hitman who lives alone in New York City and he gets his jobs through an old neighborhood mobster named Tony. One day he meets Mathilda (Natalie Portman), since they lived in the same building, her family was dysfunctional and one day some corrupt agents attack her family for a drug problem, but in a dirty trick, they end up killing all the members except for her since she realized the situation and decided to enter Leon's apartment.
• Actuaciones de primera por parte de todos, sobretodo de Natalie Portman ya que esta era la primera vez que protagonizaba un film y vaya papel el que le dieron.
• El desarrollo de la historia te hace amar y odiar a algunos personajes, pero te muestra de manera realista y cruda como transcurre todo la situación que presentan.
• Una trama atraparme e innovadora.
• It has an incredible script.
• Top notch performances by all, especially Natalie Portman since this was the first time she starred in a film and what a role she was given.
• The development of the story makes you love and hate some characters, but it shows you in a realistic and raw way how the situation they present takes place.
• A catching and innovative plot.
This film is undoubtedly one of the best of this genre, the most intriguing thing about it is the development of the characters, it had many criticisms at the time for the relationship between the 2 main protagonists, in which they tried to make it clear that Mathilda only admired him and longed for someone to protect her after everything that happened, but I must admit that there are scenes that can be misinterpreted by the tone.
The saddest thing about this one was the ending, even though it was very realistic, we were expecting another outcome, but I won't tell you in case you haven't seen it yet, I totally recommend it and I give it an 8/10.
