Review of Widows (2018)

By Simon Miraudo (882) for Student Edge (256) on 19 Nov 2018

Review of Widows (2018)

By Katie Parker (11) for Flicks.co.nz (982) on 19 Nov 2018

Widows is not just the best female-led movie we've seen in years; it's the best heist movie we've seen in years, that just happens to star women…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Tony Baker (58) for Tony Baker Comedy (58) on 19 Nov 2018

Ultimately, the performances were good, the character development was good, [but] I feel like they could have fleshed out some of the characters…

An ace thriller, presenting the business of desperate amateurs assembling a dangerous heist with a burly, growling nastiness…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Josh Terry (603) for Deseret News (Salt Lake City) (1) on 19 Nov 2018

With a little more of that opening scene craziness - and a bit less of the gratuitous content - Widows might fall into more of a guilty pleasure…

A jagged-edged thriller with sharp cuts on politics, class, glass ceilings and race…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Eli Glasner (71) for CBC News Network (18) on 19 Nov 2018

Review of Widows (2018)

By Richard Brody (868) for New Yorker (1,403) on 19 Nov 2018

Despite the deftness of the graft (thanks to a script that he co-wrote with Gillian Flynn), it remains, throughout, a graft—a conspicuous…

Review of Widows (2018)

Review of Widows (2018)

By Vince Mancini (256) for Uproxx (697) on 19 Nov 2018

Review of Widows (2018)

By Tim Brennan (12) for About Boulder (11) on 18 Nov 2018
