Black Widows

I loved this film...it took me back to the 60's and the dark comedies like Putney Swope and early Peter Sellers movies...I love the dark yet subtle laughs of those films...and if you didn't get it...well we were not going to the movies again! The fact that the ladies were falling in "murder" all the time just cracked me up.I was blown away by the actress who played "Nora" Bridget Graham..this is a star on the rise.It is hard to be beautiful AND funny..she stole the show.I really got a kick out of way the gals were stumbling though this nightmare...rather Marx Brothers-ish.Kick back and get ready for some giggles...The second time for me was better because I knew the punchline,as it were...and it was fun to go back in time (my 20's) and imagine a few times I wish these were my girlfriends

This is a thoroughly enjoyable black comedy about revenge that gets out of hand. Three friends band together to get even for a devastating assault. Of course no one will listen to or believe the victim, so they set out to balance the scales of justice--but justice tips over into disaster as the playbook goes out the window on the first encounter.

Director Ozols-Graham has done miracles with a tiny budget--squeezing every single bit of production value out of every well-crafted sequence. And she manages to keep the story tripping along the balance beam of black humor and dramatic horror. This mix of genres has created a truly interesting and entertaining film.

Emotions trump CGI and humor jumps out as effectively as the unexpected plot twist. Black Widows is worth your time. Enjoy!

Black Widows is a low budget black comedy about women gaining revenge on their men. I was surprised how much I enjoyed this, the plot is good,the three leading actresses worked together well, the dialogue is a bit clunky, but it had a good amount of humour, whilst also addressing some serious issues. Well worth giving it a try. A thumbs up.

Great watch- recommend to anyone who enjoys black comedy

Honestly, I thought it was decent. Some of the acting could have been better, and some of the scenes begged to be shot differently, but ultimately I think viewers can just appreciate what the movie was about. Black Widows is a commentary on modern rape culture (which is itself so disgusting it's basically satire). Men have this ultra- shitty tendency to blame women for their own rapes (i.e. she wanted to find a guy so she had sex early in the relationship, she'd had sex with him before, they were dating, etc.). That kind of destructive thinking is subverted by the writing in the movie. Sure, you could watch it and blame Darcy for what happened to her, but *you* would be the asshole, since the movie made it clear she was just a normal person who got hurt by someone she trusted. Thought it was a nice addition to the conversation surrounding rape culture.
