Nikita - In French, with Hungarian subtitles

Nikita is a turning point in the world of Luc Besson, and perhaps also indicates other shifts as well. For example, the fading of the deification of style in film, along with less focus on wandering and unquenchable passions. The more adventurously spirited believe that Nikita is a prelude to Léon. And there are some who think that Léon was the beginning of a new - perhaps more commercially reliable - era.
There's no doubt that Nikita unfolds with much more discipline, with its dramaturgy precisely worked out, while still preserving the "stylishness” - for example - in the depiction of Nikita's transformation. The action scenes and having Nikita step out as an action hero entailed a new trend. But the world still moves on... 1993 brought Point of No Return, the American remake of Nikita, which had less style and more action. And we would soon see Luc Besson also turning toward action and fairy tales. For the most part, no longer as a director, but instead chiefly as a producer, and as a screenwriter. This might turn out to be an exciting adventure for those whose familiarity with Nikita extends primarily to the television series.
