Other Serious Plot Holes in the movie Léon


In every single scene, Léon has a 5-day growth of beard. Impossible!


It should be against the law to use 'LOL'; unless you really did LOL!

At the end of the film, Mathilda plants Leon's plant smack dab in the middle of a field. The plant is an Aglaonema, or Chinese evergreen, a tropical plant known for its intolerance of cold temperatures. Chilling injury can begin at 59 °F (or 15° C). So the plant will die in the NJ winter -- that is, if it has survived the kind of trampling that a plant planted smack dab in the middle of a field is bound to be subjected to.

Actually, it will die long before winter, since night time temperatures fall below 59 in NJ well before winter.

Complete fail as a movie final symbolic action.

Are you sure you know what a plot hole is?

Another major plot hole is that Mathilda sings "What a beautiful feeling" when the correct lyrics are "What a glorious feeling".

I laughed out quietly.

Another major plot hole is when Léon is tutoring Mathilda, and he speaks of the victim as "the client". The client is the one who pays you.

We all know that Leon's mental capacity isn't that great. Maybe he got the victim and the client confused. Yet another BRILLIANT debate you have outlined for us! THIS REALLY IS FUN!!!!!!

reply

Maybe Mathilda hadn't heard the song in a while and she forgot the words. This is so interesting!!!!!!

reply

Maybe the plant that Mathilda planted was made out of plastic, that way the cold won't hurt it. We are really debating now aren't we?

reply

Not if he shaves with clippers. That's how I shave

As far as Leon's beard goes, are you sure it was a 5 day growth? Maybe it was a 6 day growth or even a 7 day possibly. It's hard to tell isn't it?
