In this international spy thriller, Academy Award® Winner Jennifer Lawrence is Dominika, a former ballerina forced to enter Sparrow School, a secret government program that thrusts her into a treacherous espionage game between Russia and the CIA. She emerges trained as a lethal agent, but is trapped in a world she desperately wants to escape. Red Sparrow “twists and turns until the shocking conclusion” (Andrew Freund, Dish Nation, FOX-TV) – you will not see coming.

Red Sparrow Starring Jennifer Lawrence

Director Francis Lawrence (Hunger Games: Catching Fire, Mockingjay Parts 1 & 2) reunites with in this edge-of-your-seat spy thriller. RED SPARROW includes over 90 minutes of bonus material that takes you inside the making of the film, exploring real-life source material with the author, cast commentary, deleted scenes and much more.

My Thoughts: Normally I’m not a big fan of Jennifer Lawrence, but I have to admit… This movie had me on the edge of my seat and glued to the screen. The role of Dominika was tailor made for Jennifer Lawrence and frankly, I can’t imagine any other actress playing this specific role. From start to finish, the story line has you entertained and guessing what is going to happen next.

My husband and I both sat down together to watch it and we both agreed, it’s one of the best films that we’ve seen all year. It’s the type of movie that you’ll want to watch a few times and every time that you watch it, you see something new! We don’t give out spoilers here on the blog, but I will tell you that the movie doesn’t end the way that you think it will. The perfect movie for an at-home date night! We’re giving the movie 8 1/2 popcorn buckets out of 10 popcorn buckets on our movie rating scale.
