Ranking March 2018's Movies From Worst To Best
11. Red Sparrow
RottenTomatoes Score: 48% (5.6/10)
Box Office: Budgeted at a steep $69 million (with reportedly almost $20 million going to star Jennifer Lawrence alone), Fox clearly bet a little too eagerly on Lawrence's box office pull, because the sexy spy thriller has just barely cracked $120 million to date.
Home video sales will push it into profitability, but it's not the smash hit Fox was evidently expecting.
Verdict: Jennifer Lawrence shines in this uneven but mostly entertaining spy romp, which is disappointingly generic and about 20 minutes too long, but sexy, gorgeously shot and suitably gritty.
But seriously, what was Mary-Louise Parker's performance all about in this movie? Critics will be left debating it for the foreseeable future.
