Handling a genre piece for the first time, director Steve McQueen ups the ante of nearly every scene by doubling and tripling the import by various means, creating in the process a provocative portrait of life on the troubled south side of Chicago.

Rating: 4.5/5 --
The plotting is also clunky at times and not much of the action is plausible, but with these astonishing performances, the flaws almost don't matter.

4 stars out of 5 -- What starts as a lean revenge potboiler quickly expands into a sprawling treatise on modern-day America.
Empire
Seeing these actresses work together turns the heist caper genre on its head and provides one more reason why this year is the year of the woman.

As much about class, race, politics, and privilege as it is about heists, Widows presents a fallen world where thievery is just part of life.

Rating: 8.5/10 --
Widows is an exciting and suspenseful heist thriller that proves itself to be about much more than just the heist itself. It's a stinging social commentary on modern-day America that is backed by powerful performances.
