Solid.

A very average spy thriller in terms of plot and set-up. Russia vs the US is brought up again, certainly has absolutely nothing to do with the current political situation. Just hope they don't start raising those old cows again in film land, I'm not really looking forward to that.

You should definitely not watch this one for the story. Here and there some obligatory songs and some surprise twists towards the end. Such a film where you actually already know in advance that you will be ripped off, but that the end also just plainly explains how the fork is in the handle. So little reason to pay attention.

Fortunately, the stylization is of a slightly higher level. Nothing earth-shattering, but it still looks pretty sleek and precise. Camera work is neat, use of color is precise and every now and then there are scenes that remain on the retina. Nice acting by Lawrence and Schoenaerts further, although you have to wonder why there is such a huge lack of Russian actors, that's not really of this time.

A bit long too, luckily it also remains visually interesting, so that it is doable for once.

3.0*

Jennifer Lawrence does it again in this stylishly shot film with a very strikingly challenging role that you wouldn't expect right away. The story is nothing new under the sun, but the way the film is developed makes this piece slightly different from most films in this genre. Sometimes quite brutal and completely naked is not avoided. 140 minutes seems a bit long, but I didn't look at the clock. It might have been a little shorter. The punch line is also not easy to predict and the lock is definitely solid. 7/10

Nice to see Thekla Reuter and Mathias Schoenaerts in a movie. They are doing well. Jennifer Lawrence is also quite nice. I especially struggle with the messy, unbelievable script and certain aspects that Lovelyboy already describes below. The torture methods didn't make me happy either.
