Great movie...especially for the women viewers. To think that is how women first got the vote...amazing the trials and tribulations they had to go through..I highly recommend this movie.

Well acted and good history lesson about a period I knew nothing about.

This movie is excellent. It does a great job of evoking the look and feel of the period in England when the women's suffrage movement escalated its efforts to draw attention to the cause of voting rights for women. The acting is good, the character portrayals very believable, the scenery and costumes realistic, and the plot line is credible and well-done. Although this movie is no substitute for reading history about the English women's suffrage movement, it is a very good example of historical drama that combines good entertainment with reasonable fidelity to history.

The movie "Suffragette " is an important film (especially for the younger generation , many of whom are unaware of the long struggle by political activists to obtain for women the right to vote). The film focuses on the British suffragist struggle in 1912 and actress CAREY MULLIGAN gives an emotional portrayal of an "average working woman" caught up in the struggle.MERYL STREEP is in the film only briefly but, as she always does, gives a powerful performance,

This movie makes clear in a very gripping way what agony women in early 20th century England had to go through to get the right to vote. Carey Mulligan does a great job of portraying the personal sacrifices women had to make to get to vote. In fact the movie does a great job of portraying the suppression of all of women's rights in early 20th century England.
