Ruth is no hero, in fact she represents everything that honest and moral people abhor. This movie is about steering a narrative.

Second Review - I don't look at this movie from a political perspective. I look art it as a woman (or man) who is ambitious in doing the right thing & correcting injustices to whom ever the injustice applies to , but is oppressed for being a woman, but has the fire in her to pursue her initial dreams eventually, in part , with the help of here husband As important ; the respect, support & sometimes protective nature of her husband in helping his wife fulfill her dreams. Excellent model of a couple . And a shout-out for director Mimi Leder who often don't get the credit they deserve. (until Award time, maybe).

It's really sad to see how many men out there hate women and resent their successes. It's been many years since women have been proved to be just as intelligent as men, equal in every way except possibly size/muscle and as capable and driven as any man. Thank god there's finally a #metoo movement so men who consider women to be objects can no longer do terrible things to women and girls without being punished and thank god for women like Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Amazing portrayal of this amazing Justice! Any woman who has been discriminated against (and it's all of us) will relate to this, and every man will understand while being entertained. This woman has done more for women and human kind than we know. Great entertainment, good story, good cinematography.

Not sure what the negative reviews are about. Apparently everything recounted in the film itself is true, whatever else you like/dislike about RBG. Seriously, people, try to imagine this kind of drive without hating her for being a woman. Try. You can do it.

An amazing story about well told. A bit of history all should know about. RBG is an incredible woman.
