Queen of the Ring is a must-see for lovers of sports films, biopics, and period pieces. The drama surrounding Millie Burke’s life remains engaging throughout, thanks to the writing, directing, and acting. Read full review

That story is beyond tragic, but although Queen of the Ring does have some sad moments, it's also a story of unwavering passion. As the final credits roll, you're going to feel a renewed strength thanks to such a powerful icon. Read full review
