By David Edelstein (2,124) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 12 Sep 2018

The movie, believe it or not, gives pleasure. It’s a stark, violent, cynical but thoroughly entertaining caper picture…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Sarah Marrs (566) for Lainey Gossip (399) on 11 Sep 2018

Widows is a heist movie with a mind and a voice and a total lack of fear in using both…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Adam Nayman (350) for The Ringer (285) on 11 Sep 2018

Widows' entertainment value is undeniable, and yet it's fascinating mostly as a case study of a supremely talented filmmaker test-driving his…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Jamie Broadnax (55) for Black Girl Nerds (256) on 11 Sep 2018

Widows has a slow start but buffers out its screentime with an awesome finish…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Allyson Johnson (161) for The Young Folks (1,024) on 11 Sep 2018

Widows has a commendable duality where it's able to be fun but not forgettable and exciting without being mindless fluff…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Justin Chang (1,535) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 10 Sep 2018

In Widows, diversity isn’t an opportunity for showy tokenism or liberal pieties…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 10 Sep 2018

McQueen has made a film that’s sleek and muscular, a polished product that has a barb-wire ribbon of tenacious political fury running through…

Review of Widows (2018)

By E. Oliver Whitney (111) for ScreenCrush (954) on 10 Sep 2018

Though Widows isn’t as exceptional as McQueen’s previous work, his style elevates it well beyond any generic big studio genre film…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Simran Hans (401) for Sight and Sound (827) on 10 Sep 2018

McQueen spitballs hot-button issues like political corruption, police brutality, domestic violence, sex work and even interracial relationships,…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Esther Zuckerman (46) for Thrillist (209) on 10 Sep 2018

Despite the widows' common goal, they are not chummy. They are bound solely by need, so there's a grimness to their mission…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Sarah Kurchak (64) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 10 Sep 2018

It’s all deliciously fun and deliriously devious, but Widows isn’t just an exercise in sheer escapism…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Jason Guerrasio (61) for Business Insider (73) on 09 Sep 2018

It's hard to make a heist movie these days that doesn't feel like the countless others we've had thrown at us going as far back as the days…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Jake Cole (292) for Slant Magazine (8,298) on 09 Sep 2018

For all its flaws, Widows is McQueen’s most fascinating, bracing feature to date, a demonstration of the filmmaker embracing his commercial…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Stephen Dalton (194) for Times (UK) (2,458) on 09 Sep 2018

A flawed but fascinating mismatch between director and project, Widows is tough on crime, but even tougher on the causes of crime…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Barry Hertz (792) for Globe and Mail (2,419) on 09 Sep 2018

Led by a magnificent Viola Davis, the cast is ridiculously stacked. The action is tremendous…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Jorge (Jj) Negrete (92) for Butaca Ancha (324) on 09 Sep 2018

In the end despite al formal solvency and highly enjoyable product onscreen, the artist who brought us Hunger (2008) is missed…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Richard Porton (36) for The Daily Beast (380) on 09 Sep 2018

Even though Widows' critique of political skullduggery and male arrogance is pegged to a gimmicky plot device, it's still a rousing piece of…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Fionnuala Halligan (367) for Screen International (2,241) on 08 Sep 2018

The distinguishing, and perhaps unsurprising element - given McQueen’s strong characterisation in the past – is that each of the film’s…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Todd Mccarthy (1,810) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 08 Sep 2018

Widows is a solid piece of genre fiction made more resonant by how its creators have bored down into its characters and sociological implications…

Review of Widows (2018)

By Benjamin Lee (469) for The Guardian (2,969) on 08 Sep 2018
