“Queen of the Ring” is a wide-eyed and inspirational biopic about Milred Burke, born Mildred Bliss, who defied gender norms, broke arbitrary laws separating and limiting the participation of all genders in sports, and shattered the glass ceiling. She was a single mother, an entrepreneur and I hope I never get punched as hard as she can punch. At a time when women’s wrestling was outlawed throughout much of the United States, she not only proved it could be done, but also that it could be profitable as hell. Mildred Burke is played by Emily Bett Rickards, who is best known for playing the hacker Felicity Smoak on the superhero TV series “Arrow.” If her performance in “Queen of the Ring” is any indication, she may have been better suited to play Wonder Woman. Rickards is a star in every classical sense, a Golden Age of Hollywood spitfire, dominating the screen with forceful line deliveries and a disarming smile.. – The Wrap
