The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Red Sparrow is ok. Its more serious than 007, while failing to be as serious as the excellent Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Jennifer Lawrence is good, although I wasn't sure what to make of her Russian accent, which she looses from time to time. Red Sparrow fails to live to the hype. I expected more.
It is the legitimate follow-up to Salt, but the plot is more advanced and given what we know today about Putin and his spies it is relevant and contemporary. It is a risk fr the studio to issue a film like this and the risk taken is appreciated.
Gorky Park?Oh $H!%!It is never good when Jeremy Irons appears.Candy city?I'm happy to see the dog has a coat when it is so obviously cold.She's got potential.Everyone says "small child"... I think there are very few "large children" but how about a "normal sized child"?The list of people she is gonna kill is growing.
Honestly I don't see why the reviews are so bad. The acting as well as the cinematography, the story and the tention built, where very good. It's a common story with very surprising plots wich makes it really original. It kept me entertaint and tense from the beginning till the end. Also the way the movie was filmed was very beautiful and artistic. This could definatly be an arthouse spy movie. As I said I thought this was one of the greater movies I've ever seen. I think you could compare it to shutter island.
