Review of Red Sparrow (2018) by Filmanwalt — 17 Jan 2021
Jennifer Lawrence in the lead role in a Russian agent film. I have to say I liked the beginning and the end very much, it was sometimes disturbing, very exciting and also very brutal (especially when it comes to the torture). Actually, I have nothing to complain about except with Lawrence's mother, which I found a little weak.
Lawrence had to give up her ballerina career and take the path of an agent who is supposed to get information primarily with her sexual stimuli (especially the training in school 4 was very extreme). So far, actually quite good, unfortunately the film lost me a bit in the middle part, there was hardly any tension for me and the whole thing was babbling to itself.
As already mentioned at the beginning, the end is impressive again and the clasp succeeds (e.g. the glass). All in all, a film worth seeing for me 8/10 Sparrows.
