“La réalisatrice nous offre des scènes d’actions lisibles, puissantes et captivantes, qui donnent à chacune de ses héroïnes l’opportunité de briller. Au champ d’honneur, la gloire revient à Viola Davis, dont la meilleure arme n’est pas une lance, mais ses yeux: tantôt foudroyants, tantôt chargés d’émotions contenues. Au côté de l’actrice en chef guerrière, Lashana Lynch et Thuso Mbedu ne déméritent pas, s’affirmant avec charisme.” Surimpressions.be
