Red Sparrow, the 2018 movie from Hunger Games director Francis Lawrence and starring Jennifer Lawrence, is a convoluted spy thriller with many twists and turns - and an especially shocking ending. A claustrophobic tale of double agents, double-crosses, secret identities, and hidden agendas, Red Sparrow is an uncomfortable and harrowing ride through the world of clandestine spies in the tense political climate of Russia-USA relations.
