Tired of a life on the run, pro thief Carole decides to retire. But the woman she works for won’t let her go easily, and freedom comes at a steep cost: one incredibly complicated last job with her loyal partner in crime Alex and rookie getaway driver Sam.
RogerEbert.com by Sheila O'Malley
Wingwomen, based on the graphic novel The Grand Odalisque by Jérôme Mulot, Florent Ruppert, and Bastien Vivès, is an action-packed heist film, but it leaves enormous room for the most important thing: Carole and Alex's friendship.
Movie Nation by Roger Moore
It’s slick and scenic and the stars wear their black robber unitards with French elan. But Wingwomen never adds up to the sum of its parts, no matter how many are added to it.
The New York Times by Beatrice Loayza
The Frenchwomen twist on the supersquad action movie has its charms, but it’s not enough to eclipse the script’s uninspired angles.
The Guardian by Benjamin Lee
Laurent, to her credit as director, is less interested in how a shootout can work as an aphrodisiac, and more invested in how it would affect a female friendship.
