- Rating: 3.5 out of 5 starsThe film "On the Basis of Sex," featuring Felicity Jones as Ruth Bader Ginsburg, is truly a remarkable piece of cinema. I found the film's complexity to be deeply rooted in its historical significance, showcasing Ruth's journey and the struggles she faced on her path to becoming a pivotal figure in history. The film effectively captures the essence of the era, keeping the audience engaged rather than losing interest due to its historical context. You can genuinely feel the impact of the characters and their contributions during that time, particularly Ruth's influence on women's rights in the United States. It’s an inspiring portrayal that resonates strongly. While there were a few aspects that could have been adjusted—some moments felt a bit dialogue-heavy—the film still managed to strike a balance with enough action and drama to create a positive viewing experience. I would definitely recommend this film to anyone interested in American history; it’s a powerful and enlightening watch.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 starsCertainly worth watching but RBG's inspiring story deserves better treatment. Typecasting throughout. Hammer:s performance takes me back to the worst community theater I've ever seen.
- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsThe movie portrays the personal and professional life of RBG in an engaging way.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 starsIt’s not a bad movie, however I would have loved to see more depth to the issues portrayed. There are great hints and mentions of them, but the movie is flowing through them pretty fast without getting into why those issues exist/ context of the times, RBG’s thinking process and evolving perspectives etc. It just seemed a tad shallow but that might have been caused by my expectations of a movie about such a legend :)
- Rating: 5 out of 5 starsThis film shows how a person's vision of right can change the staid assumptions of law and the legal system. Felicity Jones' understated performance of Ruth Bader Ginsburg is powerful.

- Rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsWhat a trailblazer, great cast, great story loved this movie
- Rating: 4 out of 5 starsMy 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.
