Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

The Kitchen (2019)

When three gangsters get sent to prison, their wives have to figure out how to bring in the cash themselves. They wind up being better at the protection game than their husbands were.

It's serviceable but nothing more. The most interesting storyline was the evolution of one of the women from meek punching bag to enforcer -- the film should've focused on that rather than rushing through the tough work these ladies must've had to do.
