A step ahead of the best, turning a so-so mystery into a memorable night at the movies...

Functions adequately, but you wish they had of spent as much time on quality dialogue and plotting as they did on pushing the boundaries of violence and sexuality. Read more

The story is easy to engage with and allows for deeper involvement as it asks questions of our characters and where their allegiances lie. Read more

Anchored by Jennifer Lawrence’s performance, Red Sparrow is a slow-burn spy/seductress thriller that’s shiny on the surface, yet lacking in depth. Read more

There’s a good ‘post cold war’ spy film in here trying to get out. Unfortunately, it never quite gets both legs over the wall. Read more

A fairly forgettable, very violent, and utterly uninteresting spy thriller. Read more

It might at least be a fun time waster if Charlize Theron hadn’t done that better with last year’s Atomic Blonde. Read more

The more plot twists it throws up, the more we find ourselves scratching our heads at how it consistently contradicts itself and appears to be making up its plot on the fly. Read more

Packs an imperfect punch that only becomes effective during the brief yet violent interrogations and a well-mounted scene involving unmerciful stabs. Read more

Seems to lack a sense of purpose. The problem isn’t that it isn’t there, but rather that, in relying upon shallow, twisted pleasures, it fails to go deep enough to find it.

Dresses itself up as a sleek espionage thriller with gritty undertones, and never does anything worthwhile with that framework. Read more

Isn’t horrible but it’s instantly forgettable. Nothing it does is necessarily bad but there also don’t seem to be any stakes attached to the events. Read more

An all too familiar plot twist makes this a truly forgettable trip down cloak and dagger boulevard. Read more

Sfeervol in een koele setting en schroomt niet de gebeurtenis te tonen als het moment daar is. Goede setting, flow en opbouw. Read more

Heeft enkele spannende scènes, maar ook minstens zoveel tekortkomingen waardoor de film niet is geworden wat het had kunnen zijn. Read more
