...the strong performances, grounded world, and clean, matter-of-fact direction by McQueen easily elevate 'Widows' above most heist movies.

McQueen behandler de mange lag i den ellers såresimple hævnhistorie med stort filmisk overskud.

Brittiska tv-serien ”Änkorna” kom 1983. Intrigen är ganska lik när allt flyttat till USA, men intensiteten och tempot högre. Det är våldsammare och brutalare, även i dialogen.
