    What a trailblazer, great cast, great story loved this movie
  • Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
    My heroine, RBG, is such a legend that this film only covers a small portion of her accomplishments. I was impressed how the plot was able to show what it took for her to do so much. Acting was terrific. The whole movie was well done.

    It's good, though abbreviated. I was expecting something more substantial but that's not to say I was disappointed. Great performances and an engaging sliver of RBG's life.

    I thought this was a good movie & interesting story that brought to life the real-life challenges for Ruth Ginsberg and women in the professional workplace during the 60's & 70's which was a man's world

    This is my favorite movie ever. While I wish it showed more of Ruth's life after the tax case, it conveys her and her accomplishments so well. RBG is my idol and this movie does her so much justice.

    This was an interesting watch, in terms of the biographical element, although it is a bit bland in terms of the drama element perhaps. Its mostly court based but then I suppose thats maybe to be expected(!). The performances are decent and I thought it was pretty thought provoking but it may be a little slow and a little bland for some peoples taste. The theme of gender equality is certainly an important one and its worth watching but if the political story isnt of interest to you, then obviously this won't really appeal.

    Excellent subject matter and acting. Some of the directorial choices fell below the height of the content. Still a must-see for the true story of a real life super hero.

    La contribution de Ruth pour vaincre le sexisme dans les lois des États-Unis. Beau film très respectueux de la famille fait avec l'aide de la famille.
