What critics compared K-19: The Widowmaker to
…in fact also directed 2002’s nuclear sub thriller, K-19: The Widowmaker, which similarly dealt with a ticking time bomb scenario in its own way…
In addition to Zero Dark Thirty, Bigelow has also delivered projects like The Hurt Locker, Detroit, and K-19: The Widowmaker.
…including Bigelow's own K-19…
Director Kathryn Bigelow has tackled dire military situations before in the fictional "The Hurt Locker" and factual "Zero Dark Thirty" as well as a potential nuclear meltdown in "K-19: The Widowmaker."
This isn’t the first time Bigelow has tackled the existential terror of mutually assured destruction — 2002’s K-19: The Widowmaker told the true story of a disaster aboard a Soviet nuclear submarine (that wasn’t just Harrison Ford’s awful Russian accent).
…she made movies for the masses like Near Dark, Point Break, and K-19: The Widowmaker.
The CIA of Red Sparrow is as unbelievable as Jennifer Lawrence being a prima ballerina, as hard to endure as Lawrence’s K-19: the Widowmaker Russian accent, as regressive and tone-deaf as the idea that a woman must be violated before she can claim any strength or agency.
