Why watch this film?

One of the masterpieces of filmmaker Luc Besson, in an action-packed story set in New York (although the entire movie was filmed in France, something that goes unnoticed by the viewer due to the great locations and set design). Amazing performances by Jean Reno and Gary Oldman, but who really steals the show is the still young Natalie Portman. A movie that any action movie fan must watch.
