Gloria Allred overcame trauma and personal setbacks to become one of the nation’s most famous women’s rights attorneys. Now the feminist firebrand takes on two of the biggest adversaries of her career, Bill Cosby and Donald Trump, as sexual violence allegations grip the nation and keep her in the spotlight.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

The acting in this movie is really good.

I went into this doc with trepidation because I had always considered Gloria Allred to be a brash, loud-mouthed feminist, who had nothing to say that didn't make her money.Unlike at least one reviewer here, I can admit to being wrong AFTER actually watching the film. Gloria Allred is a fighter, and yes, she does appear on TV a lot, but there is a deeper purpose in it. She is laser focused on women's rights and getting her message out to the general public, so that change can be achieved.The documentary takes us through Gloria's fight and even some of her early life, but you can tell by watching that she doesn't really consider herself part of the story. As I said, LASER-focused on other women.To be honest, it's stunning to me that Allred is still very necessary in 2018 America, but she clearly is. Anyone who can look objectively at what's happened in and to the country in the past two years knows that. There are some that won't see it and that's to their detriment. Truth truly does set us free!So, no matter what you currently feel about Gloria Allred, watch this doc. It was well worth my time, is well put together, and I can almost guarantee that if your opinion of her has been formed from listening to others, your opinion will be changed.

2/10/18. Watch this. At this time in American history, we all need to be reminded that women like Gloria Allred made it possible for women to be believed and heard and have their day in court. She grew up in a time when women had very little say if something terrible should happen to them. That is the reason why women who were sexually harassed and assaulted never spoke up or reported what happened to them. In this era of #MeToo #TimesUp women and men as well have been empowered to speak up, not just "their" truth, but the truth of horrendous behaviors that left them less of a person. Allred lived through it all, from leaving a marriage to a bipolar man, to being a single mother, then getting raped on a date, getting pregnant and almost dying from a back alley abortion. She took these experiences and made it her mission to make sure women who went through what she went through would be heard, believed and have their day in court. It is people like Allred who made it possible to level the playing field that allowed women to speak up and reveal secrets that have damaged their mental health and lives. Thanks to her, women can finally say #MeToo and #TimesUp. Thank you, Gloria Allred. We need more women like you!

This documentary explores Allred's many supporters and detractors alike. It is an honest portrayal of an attorney who has made it her life's work to support those who have been wronged by society.Incredible film. Saw it at Sundance and the audience jumped to their feet in a standing ovation when it ended. Not to be missed.

I had always heard her name over the years, an LA lawyer that was hired by rich and famous women to defend their rights during their day in court. This documentary gives us the peak behind the veil that Gloria has placed over her, digging in to her history and private life. Well made and well paced, we learn about the reasons Gloria is who Gloria is and why she has dedicated her life to fight for those who feel they don't have a voice loud enough to be heard. I was truly moved as this huge white man, obviously a Trump supporter, gets in the face of Gloria -who is 75 yrs old and maybe 100 lbs -and she calmly lets him yell in her face then politely proceeds to leave him virtually speechless with her calm and poignant words.
