Widows isn’t really a heist film, at least in the traditional sense. It’s far more compelling. The failed robbery creating the four widows serves as catalyst for their empowerment of self and command of their destinies, and does give rise to them planning their own heist. And, it’s all well staged, but the energy and drama we follow is in the pieces being assembled for the crime they must commit, rather than in the execution of that crime.
It’s important not to expect the trappings of a traditional heist film; rather, expect a compelling study of betrayal and independence, love and loss, and the journey of four women who will come to stand up and find more of themselves than they ever thought possible. In that, Widows is an exceptional film brimming with thoroughly compelling performances and a director willing to make interesting artistic choices along the way.
