Jennifer Lawrence , known as "Big Cousin", is young, beautiful and close to the people, with outstanding acting skills and high productivity, attracting countless fans, and is regarded as the most promising actress of the younger generation in Hollywood.
However, just like the fall on the night after the Oscar was awarded with "The Line of Happiness behind the Dark Clouds", the career line after the eldest cousin seems to be a bit too... erratic.
For example, "Space Traveler" , which was released in China last year , was originally thought to be a dark and suspenseful blockbuster in outer space, but flop became a love inspirational blockbuster in which Star-Lord was lonely and unbearable, and the big cousin had no choice but to sleep with him in the cabin.
Perhaps because she was in a hurry to get the second letter as soon as possible, she later picked up Darren Aronofsky's "Mother! ” , in the film, she was deprived of her youngest son, beaten and kicked, and her heart was dug out.
Nominated for Worst Actress at the Golden Raspberry Award.
This is no way. This year, the big cousin has found the director of "The Hunger Games" that made her famous , and created a spy agent role for her.
If the eldest cousin wants to play a spy, she must have a rich sense of hierarchy.
Both a double agent and a porn spy.
In this way, the scale must be amazing, and the R-level topic masterpiece in 2018——
Cardinals
Red Sparrow
The heroine , Dominika Yegorova , is an excellent ballerina.
Naturally beautiful, she fits perfectly with the art of ballet, and naturally she has many opportunities to dance as the protagonist, which is envious of others.
Looking at the agile and vigorous skills of the eldest cousin, does it remind you of the classic "Black Swan" danced by Natalie Portman, who is also an Oscar actress.
But the difference is that "Black Swan" ended with a perfect martyrdom, while "Red Sparrow" opened the bloody curtain with broken dance steps.
Yegorova had a terrible accident on the stage,
Her left leg was suddenly stepped on by her boyfriend and dance partner while jumping, and her career was almost scrapped.
After Yegorova recovered, she found that it was indeed a deliberate frame-up.
So, the eldest cousin found the opportunity to kill the dog and the man who framed her.
Being unkind to others, being framed tragically, having an unsustainable career, and having to be charged with intentionally hurting others, Yegorova's "cool", I am afraid she will have to sing for a lifetime.
But the worst thing in life is not that there is no hope, but that it gives you hope and then makes you despair.
Yegorova has a colossal Putin-looking uncle, Yegorov , who works for Russia's foreign intelligence agency.
This uncle, who can be called the most pitiful niece in history, showed Yegorova a "bright way" - becoming a sparrow .
Sparrow is the code name for a female porn spy bred by the Russian state security agency "KGB" .
They obtain important information by selling their bodies and hues, and the tasks they perform are extremely dangerous.
If you want to become a sparrow, you must not only have good congenital conditions, be attractive and beautiful, but also have to undergo rigorous training at the base.
First of all, all kinds of tricks on the bed should be well-known and used freely;
Second, you have to completely let go of your dignity and virginity and serve your country wholeheartedly with your body.
A young girl, under the order of the trainer, forced her to perform oral sex on the criminal in front of her.
Those who are not conscious should not leave the base completely after training.
Russia's unique militaristic brainwashing words are impressive.
"If you are of no use to the country, you will lose your head."
"Your body belongs to the country. From birth, the country has cared about you. Now the country needs to pay back."
In the end, you have to precisely analyze and arouse the lust of your target.
Is he in love with the introverted budding, the pursuit of passion, or the obsession with everything derived from sexual charm.
In a class, Yegorova was asked to analyze what her male partner, who was also a pornographic spy, wanted most.
She gave it up, stood naked in front of the other party, and spread her legs.
But the other party has not been able to stand tall for a long time.
After giving up, Yegorova pierced his desire in one sentence——
Power is what he really wants.
The sparrow is aiming at the insatiable part of human nature - the endless thirst for sexual impulses .
All human social behaviors are based on sexual impulses, and any emotion covered by sexual impulses is the target of their attacks.
After leaving the school, Yegorova was assigned a transnational mission by her uncle:
Seduce US agent Nate Nash to get a detailed list of US spies planted in Russia and dig out their lead "Mole".
The two met in Budapest, Hungary. At first, Yegorova devised various strategies, seduced by swimming pools, flirted with eyes, and provoked words. She thought she had Nash firmly in the palm of her hand.
But I didn't expect that the same agent, the more advanced Nash had already seen through her, but he didn't break it right away.
Next, the two sometimes competed with each other in acting skills, and sometimes fell in love with each other, and they developed a dewy love in the rather low-level spy confrontation.
Of course, there is no need for an extravagant bed affair.
However, Nash has other purposes in mind. He wants to absorb Yegorova to serve the United States and become a double agent .
In order to retaliate against her will, Yegorova, who was frightened by her uncle, cultivated her into the motherland of the Cardinals and accepted this task.
So far, Sparrow became a red sparrow , and began her thrilling journey of double agents.
The anticipation for "Red Sparrow" started entirely from the trailer.
In those short 2 minutes, the big cousin appeared in all kinds of sexy clothes, showing flesh and large-scale pictures everywhere, how can people not have fantasies.
But this 135-minute film confirms the timeless truth of the bad movie: the trailer is better than the feature film .
The first is the role setting. This should be the most ruined role that my cousin has taken on in recent years.
Her own temperament does not match the profession of a ballet dancer, and she obviously does not have the aura of a dancer, so no matter how she dances, her dance steps are still funny and without beauty.
Although the eldest cousin, who calls herself a "dance idiot", has already received 3 months of ballet training in the preparatory stage...
As for the part of the secret agent, the cousin may have some misunderstandings about the two words. After she became a sparrow, there were a lot of scenes of facial paralysis. It seemed that she wanted to create a cold-blooded and ruthless feeling, but it was too contrived.
A netizen summed it up well:
The eldest cousin's ballet dancing temperament is not as good as Portman's, and she lost to Theron when she was a spy.
The battle for the best actress is dwarfed by comparison. Please, my cousin will choose a role for dim sum in the future.
The second is the unreasonable logic of the plot, which makes people very playful.
You can't imagine that most of the main characters in the whole film are Russians, but they all speak American English. This group of American actors don't even want to pretend.
The screenwriter wanted to play Double Spy, but there was no emotional transition in Yegorova's betrayal. He wrote a high-level spy as a second fool who played the family, leaving the audience confused.
The porn spy in my impression is a traitor, like Wang Jiazhi played by Tang Wei in "Lust, Caution", who exhausted the complicated feelings of entanglement, pain, and hatred, but spit out a simple "run away".
And it was the previous important sex scenes and the emotional rendering and the foreshadowing of the times that gave these two words a sense of depth.
Moreover, as an American film, when it comes to depicting Russian spies, it is all rude, mindless, and without scheming, while American spies are well-qualified, strategized, and sacrifice their lives for the country, and their ideology is too obvious. .
To talk about the highlights of this film, there may really only be those few restricted scenes.
Not only is the scale amazing, but also carries a certain narrative function, laying a foreshadowing.
During the first execution, the eldest cousin was raped by an art investor, and after being hurt, she had to watch the other party be strangled to death by a Russian spy. The scene was extremely bloody.
It was this very impactful event that planted the seeds of hatred for the motherland in Yegorova's mind.
The three o'clock full exposure in the classroom symbolizes the complete degeneration of her body. She has learned how to use her own body to obtain "answers" and is completely forced to become a sparrow.
The naked torture in the ice room tested her determination to become a double agent.
The scene where she succeeded in killing a Russian spy with blood in the end symbolizes that she has grown wings that can be stretched and stretched freely, and she can freely roam between the United States and Russia in the future.
However, the restricted-level scenes can only be used as a supplement, and the setting of the big heroine is only a gimmick in response to the market call. To truly make the film a high-quality product, it must be an airtight and rigorous narrative and a convincing story logic for the audience. .
"Red Sparrow" disregards the basic voice of these films, and goes too high in the pile of pure elements, which is tantamount to aiming a gun at the back of his head——
Good things come in pairs, not a reason for indulgence. Lost in the present is death in the future.
