Movie Review by B Movie Ben
August 1st, 2008

I think we will miss her.

Favorite Movie Quote: "There are two things that are infinite: femininity and means to take advantage of it."

A Luc Besson (Léon, The Fith Element, The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc. Angel-A) film with Anne Parillaud (Innocent Blood), Tchéky Karyo(The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc, The Patriot, Kiss of the Dragon) and Jean Reno (Léon , The Crimson Rivers, Godzilla). It doesn't get better than this.

The photography by Thierry Arbogast was perfect, especially the blue lighting at the pharmacy scene. It is easy to see why Besson uses him for his films. He is a master.

Parillaud was absolutely magnificent in a character that was a strong woman, and a little girl at the same time. She was a profession, but she was also human. To see this instead of the comic book characters we are so familiar with is refreshing.

Reno was a perfect cleaner. Hard and professional. Get the mission done.

Jean-Hugues Anglade added just the right touch of sensitivity. Outstanding! There are just not enough superlatives to use in describing the acting and action in the film.
