The acting on this is good. The story and plot is terribly written.

Sounds like autism mate. Each film establishes their own in-universe rules, often heightened or magical realism. This is purposely pulpy: crooked, drug addled cops, super heroic hitmen, qt lolis, and a fatherly mafioso. All very film neo-noir, which you may have a conniption trying to get into.

I don't think you know how much of an utter shithole New York was in the 80s and most of the 90s.

But then you were probably born after 2000 so you have no idea.

>>80054274
And yet the Godfather and Goodfellas and every other mob movie are not much different.

>>80055062
Was born in the 80s, nice try. No I never have been to the shit hole that is new york city. I'm not a faggot like you.

>>80055154
No, the Godfather is much different. It's set before there is forensics or a modern police department. Neither the Godfather or the Goodfellas has a bunch of of unbelievable plot holes like this one.

>>80055250
The "modern police dpmt" is depicted in the movie as being corrupt and run by a selfish asshole. Does Gary Oldman look like he'd be interested in forensics?

>>80054274
that was 80's 90's NY before disney. It's not even an exaggeration.

just a few real observations since 99% of you weren't born before 2000.
1. liquor like wine served to a minor accompanied with an adult was a thing if rare.
2. child services pre internet was a phone call or knock at the door once a month if at all. Families known to be problems which I'm positive Matilda's was known to be would just be abandoned. Not enough resources or people to care in NYC.
This movie was so close to reality that I wouldn't be surprised it was autobiographical.

>>80055321
He looks like he's interested in everything.

EVERY-THING!!!!

I remember going to the city a couple times as a kid and there was LIVE NUDES XXX all over the place

The film sucked. It's overrated. People only like it because it's like lolita. You are debating with a bunch of people who worship 12 year old girls here on /tv/.

>>80058856
New York is not the cultural capital of the world. That goes to cities with real history in Europe. Enjoy your faggot capital though.

>>80058369
This movie has nothing to do with Drive. I don't even like Drive.

I grew up there in the late 80's - mid 90's.

Wasn't as nice as it is now but it also wasn't the shithole you're describing. Maybe was closer to that in the 70's - early to mid 80's.

Murders go unsolved every day even now in the age of forensics and mass surveillance much less twenty years ago.

Watch the Polish spinoff.


The main protag (called Leon as if you weren't fucking obvious enough) actually fucks the girl.

>This is the 90s, not the 1800s.


It's a nominally set in the 90s, but really it takes a lot of influence from gritty 70's new york crime movies like pic related. This is also on-trend for the aesthetic trend of 90s, which was grungy-industrial like Alien or Fight club etc.

If you're going to complain about this, you might as well complain about Amélie.

>>80060896
> where do pics like that even come from?
> no results
oh my...

The relationship with the 2 was special. The girl wanted to bone. Leon, but Leon wanted her as a sort of daughter. Which made it very popular

>>80063822
literally look child/children models on google.

there's plenty of websites on the surface net.

Most (if not all) of them operate legally
though I have no fucking clue what kind of a parent you have to be to agree for your daughter to take part in a photo session like this.
