Red Sparrow
Mar. 4th, 2018 05:10 pmOver the weekend, I went to my local dinner-and-a-movie place and watched Red Sparrow, the Jennifer Lawrence spy movie. I attended the 4:30 pm show and it was not crowded. Black Panther is apparently still packing the seats.
Regarding Red Sparrow I found it a 7 out of 10. Well-acted, professionally-shot, no actual plot holes. Lawrence's character was perhaps a bit more competent than she deserved to be, but not somebody I at least felt like rooting for. It was a bit like she was playing a Katniss Everdeen that hadn't actually volunteered for anything but had just "won" the lottery straight up. Still, it was entertaining.
In other news, I've committed writing again - cranking out around 1,000 words on Eastville. Go me!
