From Academy Award®-winning director Steve McQueen ("12 Years a Slave") and co-writer and bestselling author Gillian Flynn ("Gone Girl") comes a blistering, modern-day thriller set against the backdrop of crime, passion and corruption. "Widows" is the story of four women with nothing in common except a debt left behind by their dead husbands' criminal activities. Set in contemporary Chicago, amid a time of turmoil, tensions build when Veronica (Oscar® winner Viola Davis), Alice (Elizabeth Debicki), Linda (Michelle Rodriguez) and Belle (Cynthia Erivo) take their fate into their own hands and conspire to forge a future on their own terms. "Widows" also stars Liam Neeson, Colin Farrell, Robert Duvall, Daniel Kaluuya, Lukas Haas and Brian Tyree Henry.
I had pretty high hopes for this movie considering the cast and the people involved behind the scenes. But the movie massively failed to meet those. This was not necessarily a bad movie. But it also definitely was not good either. It ended up just kind of being there. It's not awful to watch but you forget about it 5 minutes after you watch it.
I wouldn't really recommend anyone bothering with this. Definitely not in theaters. It's not worth the time and money.
