Review of Widows

Widows (2018)
7/10
I Enjoyed This One

When Liam Neeson and his entire crew is killed while pulling a robbery, his widow, Viola Davis, is told by the criminal boss who's running for alderman, that she has to come up with the money. The only asset she has is Neeson's carefully worked out plans for his next job...only she doesn't know where it is. She contacts the widows of her husband's partners and proposes they carry out the robbery.

It's a beautifully acted, tough heist film with a lot of dirty politics in the foreground, as the family of old Irish politicians struggle to maintain their seats in a newly redrawn district. Director Steve McQueen is the hot director over the last few years, and he has turned out an exciting movie.
