Mathilda (Natalie Portman) is only 12 years old, but is already familiar with the dark side of life: her abusive father stores drugs for corrupt police officers, and her mother neglects her. Léon (Jean Reno), who lives down the hall, tends to his houseplants and works as a hired hitman for mobster Tony (Danny Aiello). When her family is murdered by crooked DEA agent Stansfield (Gary Oldman), Mathilda joins forces with a reluctant Léon to learn his deadly trade and avenge her family’s deaths.

- Is life always this hard, or is it just when you’re a kid?
- Always like this.
Gary Oldman演的Norman Stansfield简直绝了。
- You love your plant, don’t you?
- It’s my best friend. Always happy. No questions. It’s like me, you see. No roots.
- If you really love it, you should plant it in a park so it can have roots. You should be watering me if you want me to grow.
- So I just need some time alone. You need some time to grow up a little.
- I finished growing up, Leon. I just get older.
- For me it’s the opposite. I’m old enough. I need time to grow up.
They have nothing to lose excerpt each other.
