Red Sparrow (Movie Rating:8.75 /10)
Jennifer Lawrence at her absolute best. Sets the screen afire with her gaze and gait. The underlying sensuality of this spy thriller, with some extremely daring scenes puts Shades-of-Grey in kindergarten. The very first brutal rip-off-her-lingerie shot rings...
Sans any Bond movie chases in Aston Martins, the plot is realistic, in an ever altering power-play, with the Ballerina at her best pirouette ever... and a bit of Bolshoi with Simultaneous Canons for those art inclined.
JoelEdgerton with a small screen-time delivers a punch. The training school curriculum is not everyone's appetite, beware.
She, JenLaw is the master of her fate, be it decimating her archR with a simple feminine snub or peeling the skin off her lover... It's a treatise... Though if you miss the dialogues, it's over for you. It's a fast, slow movie, of a spy. The burn goes on even after the credits.
