A gender-swap comedy that’s blunter than it needs to be and better than it should be. Ladies First lands somewhere in between sharp satire and Netflix filler, and somehow that makes it worth watching.

Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7 transforms a politically charged courtroom battle into an engaging, fast-paced drama powered by sharp dialogue and outstanding performances. While Sorkin’s trademark wit occasionally undermines the gravity of the real-life events, the film remains compelling thanks to its stellar ensemble cast, ideological clashes, and timely exploration of protest, injustice, and political manipulation.
