Battle of the Sexes is based on a truer story of Billy Jean King played by Emma Stone in a time when men dominated the sports world. She faces many obstacles as she becomes one of the best female players and she challenges Bobby Riggs played by Steve Carell to the match of all time.
In my opinion there are two things in the movie that I liked .
I liked Emma Stone how she played a powerful woman in the movie just like Secretariat , the movie is focused on the main woman. Billy Jean King is that woman . And I liked the fact the this is the 2nd time Emma Stone work together with Steve Carell because they have chemistry together. Their first movie was Crazy Stupid Love back in 2011.
I give it a high 10 because I like sports movies based on a true stories. I like underdog stories and this one has a message that you can do anything you want and that women can compete against guys. If you liked Steve Carell in Fox-catcher back in 2014 or Emma Stone in La la land back in 2016 Battle of the Sexes is a must see. Both of these actors are spectacular and I smell an Oscar with this one.
