The DVD Shelf---Leon: The Professional (1994): "It is well known that Americans are extremely prudish about sex. It's not really the act itself that makes us squeamish; Americans consume more pornography than fast-food burgers. But when it comes to frank discussions about sexuality in general, we get extremely nervous. We are comfortable with sex only when the issue is kept superficial. To state that is nothing new or profound. But why use that as a starting point for a discussion of an action film that has no sex or nudity in even a single one of its frames? Well, the film in question is one that had hetero men waiting seven years for a time when it would no longer be disgusting to fap to Natalie Portman."
