It's an exercise in storytelling that evolves quickly into a valuable lesson for anyone who purports to be a feminist, an ally or a film and television lover. You'll never watch either the same way again.

Rated: 3/4

If anyone needs convincing at this late date that gender inequality both in front of and behind the camera is the norm in Hollywood, "This Changes Everything" will get the job done.

In its technical simplicity, This Changes Everything raises the problem of gender injustice rooted in the past and all-embracing the contemporary age.

The presentation of the information is basic, talking heads, title cards and charts, but the movie's retelling of the legal fights for equality coupled with the women's personal stories make for a fascinating and compelling lesson.

Rated: 3.5/5

This needs to be seen on a widespread basis and reach all levels of our society regardless of gender. The Geena Davis Institute has done amazing work and is one I only hope continues to provide moving information of substance.

This is not a documentary about a fake problem. The film puts forth irrefutable data about how Hollywood has ignored female creatives for decades. The documentary is straightforward, the data easily explained and put forth. The film puts a spotlight on this glaring problem and will hopefully contribute to the change Hollywood needs.

This is a need to watch film. It's so crazy how women have been pushed to the side. I saw the list of directors on this film. All men at the top of the list. That's not giving women a chance to shine. I think they should put all the women directors to the top of that list.

Even though I work in the industry, the movie still highlighted some of the issues I didn't pay much attention in the past, but it made me realise that we should all focus our efforts to finally improve the workspace of this industry for all genders, races, religions etc. A great documentary everyone needs to watch!
