Review of Widows (2018) by Compi24 — 17 Nov 2018
Acclaimed auteur Steve McQueen follows up his Best-Picture-winning masterpiece "12 Years A Slave" with "Widows," one of the year's stronger, yet still frustratingly lacking cinematic experiences.
You get so much to chew on as a filmgoer. It's shot and performed adeptly, and features one of the best final acts I've seen in a film so far this year. But if I'm being honest, there were some character dynamics I just didn't care for, and one scene in particular that's just so poorly conceived that I had to drop the film down another half-point.
It's not a bad film by any stretch, and I appreciated a lot of the attention to detail (eapcially with the setting) but I just couldn't help but feel a tad disappointed with the final product.
