8TH MARCH 2009

In neither French or Hollywood films, has there been one Reno performance that I haven't enjoyed so far. I still have a lot to work through, but looking forward to seeing more of the talented Actor.

Léon (The Professional) (1994,  R)
Léon (The Professional)
A great film an unlikely story between a hit man and a little girl. Definitely recommend watching
2
The Crimson Rivers (Les Rivières pourpres) (2001,  R)
The Crimson Rivers (Les Rivières pourpres)
This French speaking, English sub-titled film, was a refreshing enjoyable watch with superb performances by Jean Reno and Vincent Cassel.

The only bad for me is that I don't think it will reach the desired audience purely because of the sub-titles which is a shame.

Nikita (La Femme Nikita) (1990,  R)
Nikita (La Femme Nikita)
This film started out in one direction and then turned in complete other direction, which having not read the synopsis, was a pleasant surprise. This film, I really enjoyed, but can't quite put my finger on why? Perhaps it's the strong female lead, who is a match for any man and yet still has the ability of being a feminine beauty, maybe it's the double lifestyle shes lease or maybe it was the way she was desired.

The film itself (although only 1990) looks fairly dated and of course is rather far fetched, but I found it a really enjoyable watch.

Jean Reno's role was small, yet made quite an impact as the "cleaner".

Ronin (1998,  R)
Ronin
A much better film than I remember this being, with a plot that's fast and sometimes hard to keep up with comes great acting by an all star cast, some of the best high speed chase scenes ever to appear in films, terrorism, betrayal, great twists and turns and action packed.

VERDICT: An action thriller that will keep your mind alert and addrenalin pumping

Les Rivières pourpres II - Les anges de l'apocalypse (Crimson Rivers 2: Angels of the Apocalypse) (2004,  R)
Les Rivières pourpres II - Les anges de l'apocalypse (Crimson Rivers 2: Angels of the Apocalypse)
Possibly a better storyline than the first, but didn?t quite have as much appeal, a good watch though all the same.
6
Mission Impossible (1996,  PG-13)
Mission Impossible
For an action film, this is one of my favourites
7
The Da Vinci Code (2006,  PG-13)
The Da Vinci Code
A huge film with huge content which requires your full attention, to fully absorb the quality of the plot. Wonderful acting all around, particually Ian McKellan. One to certainly let you ponder and at 2 hours and 22 minutes, this lengthly tale holds you from start to finish.
8
Flushed Away (2006,  PG)
Flushed Away
Hillariously entertaining, Flushed Away is one of the best animated family films in the last few years, with enough references to other films to almost call it a spoof.

Great characterization and some great creative ideas.
9
Hotel Rwanda (2004,  PG-13)
Hotel Rwanda
A powerful film with powerful performances to match. An amazing tale based on a true story, a truly enlightening story of one man's love of his family and bravery to save people whilst others were being brutally murdered.

This film requires your full attention and you'd be a harder person than me if this doesn't effect your emotions.

VERDICT: A definite recommendation.
