Very violent, dirty-mouthed, feminist mob drama
Here’s what the distributor says about their film: “Based on the Vertigo comic book series from DC Entertainment, the film stars Oscar® nominee Melissa McCarthy, Tiffany Haddish and Elisabeth Moss as three 1978 Hell’s Kitchen housewives whose mobster husbands are sent to prison by the FBI. Left with little but a sharp ax to grind, the ladies take the Irish mafia’s matters into their own hands—proving unexpectedly adept at everything from running the rackets to taking out the competition… literally.
Now they own the neighborhood.”
