| New York Magazine/VultureJohn LeonardIt's a reminder that feminism is first of all about human rights. |
| SPLICEDWireRob BlackwelderA stunning true story unfortunately tarted up for modern audiences, infused with modern informalities, fictional romances and wildly incongruous post-feminist empowerment pop. |
| User ReviewCandice BExcellent! Depicts a key issue in women's history, does a great job. Loved it! |
| User ReviewLeslie AA film not only historically accurate, but powerful and shocking. It takes the truth and shows it off in a way that makes you realize the magnitude of what happened. The costuming, along with everything else, was VERY well done. |
| User ReviewShe MI am disgusted at myself for not knowing about this film and more importantly, the true story that this tells. |
| User ReviewTiffany HThere is nothing I can really say about this movie. Not because it is a bad movie but because the movie make you think about what this women gave up and what they had to endure. |
| User ReviewGail Lthis is one of my favorite films. makes me want to get up and fight the fight |
| User ReviewLaura FThis has quickly become one of my absolute favorite movies. The music, pictures, film techniques...it's all put together so amazingly to create a dramatic eye-opening film that will make you passionate about justice for women. As soon as I watched it, the first time, I was ready to stand up and fight for women everywhere. The only thought I had was, "what's my cause??" I want to be like those women who gave EVERYTHING for the equality women deserve. I recommend this movie to everyone. |
| User ReviewDarrie-Ann RAn eye opening scene in which Hilary Swank shows you why she's a two time Oscar winner. A real look into the suffragist movement. |
| User ReviewStephanie DReally cool historical peace. All my feminists should see it. You don't know how good you have it! |
