Re: Assassination movies
Luke - The Professional was the US title of Léon if I'm not mistaken.

I thought Nikita (the original French movie based on La Femme Nikita, the TV series) was first class - and the Hollywood remake, The Assassin, was also reasonably good, certainly better than we could have hoped. Saw them both on the same day.

A couple of Costners - JFK, and The Untouchables (which I suppose is an assassination movie of sorts)

Oh, and I'm slightly ashamed to admit it, but another assassination movie I quite enjoyed was that Geena Davis/Samuel Jackson movie from the 90's, The Long Kiss Goodnight. (I'll get me coat now shall I?)
