Bet SD version of Leon?

Just been browsing the collection & I'm sad to say I have not yet got round to picking up a copy of Leon

So my question to you is what is the definitive Standard Def version that I should get??

I will eventually upgrade to Blu-Ray but not for a while yet so until then what version should I get?
Oh any region is fine as well

Thanky

Neil

Re: Bet SD version of Leon?

There was a Jap version called the integrale cut, had DTS sound. Someone asked about Leon a few weeks ago and got similar answers. Directors cut is the one to get if you don't want the blu.


There's quite a few results in the search box for Leon. Good luck looking through that lot.

Hi,

This is the version of LEON/THE PROFESSIONAL that I've got, and enjoy. However, for a better list of choices, see here instead.
