Entertainment Reviews:
3 stars out of 5 -- Before US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg became a feminist hero and internet meme, she was an unlikely revolutionary....Her quiet determination to forge her own path would change her country and lead to the repeal of its most sexist laws, as this efficient, understated biopic shows.
Empire
Jones applies herself soberly and energetically to cover the bases of Ginsburg's seriousness of purpose, initial career frustration and eventual clarity of vision as to how she can carve an important identity and public role for herself.
Hollywood Reporter
Rating: 2/5 --
Sadly, On the Basis of Sex is just the latest example of remarkable, tough and historically important people being the subject of unremarkable, soft-as-porridge movies designed to placate the elderly and preach to the converted.

Rating: 3/5 --
Directed by Mimi Leder (Deep Impact, The Peacemaker), the film is an important one in that younger women today can see for themselves what women of another era had to battle against for equality.

The actors and filmmakers did well by Ginsburg by making a movie that applies the right amount of myth to her amazing life.
