Entertainment Reviews:
King is passionate about women's equality, but we never really get into her head about why it really matters to her, or what the stakes are.

Battleship Pretension
3 stars out of 4 -- [I]t's a blast about two tennis champions going over the top to make a point....The movie comments bluntly on the here and now.
Rolling Stone
Rating: 3/5 --
It captures time and place, offers a diverting two hours, and asks us to consider how much or little things have changed for women in our own time.

Cinema Siren
4 stars out of 5 -- Wisecracking through matches and money-grabbing photoshoots, Carell is terrific.
Total Film
It is an entertaining and illuminating film that shines a light on the emergence of the feminist movement and changes in attitude towards sexuality.

Movies and Shakers
Rating: 3/5 --
Directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris do a fine job defining the personal and cultural stakes of the event. However, they fail to make the narrative sufficiently gripping and suspenseful.

The Express Tribune (Pakistan)
There's a great deal going on in this film so it's fortunate that there's not as much tennis being played as you'd think in a movie about a tennis match. There's no time.

Product Description:
This sports docudrama recreates the legendary 1973 "Battle of the Sexes" tennis match between Billie Jean King (Emma Stone) and Bobby Riggs (Steve Carell). When the 55-year-old Riggs brags that he can beat any woman in the world on the tennis court, 29-year-old King, then the reigning champion, accepts his challenge. Their highly publicized match soon takes on a larger meaning as a milestone in the fight for gender equality. Directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris. Elisabeth Shue, Andrea Riseborough, Sarah Silverman, Alan Cumming, and Bill Pullman co-star.
