If you're game for something simple and easy with zero surprises and not a lot of dramatic punch, On the Basis of Sex is the way to go.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg is enjoying quite the run these days. But when a gender discrimination case (against a man) lands on her desk, she has the chance to not only prove she's a capable attorney but rewrite the nation's laws in the process. Her husband Martin (Armie Hammer) has no trouble getting a job at a New York tax law firm while she can only take a teaching position. But she's a woman in an era where the 14th Amendment states that everyone is equal - but laws and statues say otherwise.
