I found it confounding...

There was a story there but the direction was disruptive. (Sidney Lument anyone?) A good example is the scene where Colin Farrell is explaining his family's connection to the neighborhood while riding in a car. The scene is shot from a weird angle outside the car while it's moving for the whole duration of the monologue. Seemed very student-filmmaker, if you will.

The story was okay, but though a Viola Davis fan, I didn't find her that compelling. Colin Farrell was schtickish and Elizabeth Debicki is, well, tall.

A good metaphor for the whole viewing experience was the scene where they were trying to open the safe and it wouldn't open because they were holding the written combination upside down. Totally unnecessary. That describes the film.

I dragged my wife to Widows and promised her she'd like it. I almost walked out midway. Now I'm going to have to accompany the wife to Aquaman or some other BS to pay her back.

Big, big disappointment. Depressing film in every respect. Go and make up your own mind.
