Liked it. I think it was meant to be a bit one-dimensional but the cast is so good they've added some depth to the characters.
This was really good i wasn't bored at all and was interested in the story.
I watched this movie all the time as a teen. Takes on an important topic for the time period is takes place. Fantastic cast.
There are some mundane parts that are however important to be shown and understood. The ending is what made everything come together.
it's one of those movies that, once you finish it, you just want to rewatch over and over again
Strong performances and inspiring arcs, though not every choice made sense. Some characters annoyed, others impressed, but the impact stuck.
I liked it, but it's not particularly noteworthy.
Not a very deep backstory but a good period drama about women's education and equal rights
I super appreciated the artistic discussion, and enjoyed Roberts’ woman-ahead-of-her-time
An amazing film discussing what feminism actually means, with beautiful acting from a fantastic cast
