Your thoughts on this movie......

The wives of New York gangsters in Hell's Kitchen in the 1970s continue to operate their husbands' rackets after they're locked up in prison.

This adaptation of the Vertigo comic mini-series serves as the directing debut of “Straight Outta Compton” scribe Andrea Berloff and boasts a “Widows”-esque premise in which the wives of Irish mobsters take over their husband’s organized crime operations in the 1970s in New York City’s Hell’s Kitchen after the FBI arrests their spouses. What’s most interesting is that this is being done very much as a drama, even with comedians Melissa McCarthy and Tiffany Haddish playing two of the three wives. Elisabeth Moss plays the third, Common is the FBI agent trying to bring them down, while Domhnall Gleeson, Margo Martindale and James Badge Dale also have key roles.

Melissa McCarthy, Tiffany Haddish, and Elisabeth Moss star in that film about the wives of Irish mobsters who team up to take over running the business after their husbands are incarcerated.
