If you liked LEON may want to check out the original LA FEMME NIKITA. Both were directed by Luc Besson, and I think Nikita is actually the better flick.

John Woo's 1989 "heroic bloodshed" epic:THE KILLER might also be right up your alley. Most people love this movie, although I have to admit that I'm not personally a fan of John Woo's work.

Two fantastic picks, which, combined with your loc, remind me of "The Killers" with Lee Marvin as a hitman, and Ronald Regan as his boss. Both Marvin and Regan are good in this flick, but the movie was originally made for tv and then released in theaters becaus of the violence, so it has some cheesey moments. Worth a see for Marvin and hitman fans if it shows up on the tube.
