I am Ruth1 Stars Out Of 5The acting is hard to takeJuly 13, 2015I am RuthQuality: 3Value: 1Meets Expectations: 1I love this story. Always have. Always will. But this version is so poorly acted and directed that it's really painful to watch. I bought the video and then gave it away because I knew I'd never be able to make it through this version again. The focus is very clearly on Naomi and not Ruth. I guess I missed the part in the Bible where she spent the whole chapter whining about how hard her life was. You'd be better served by watching the technicolor spectacle from the 60s, it's cheesy, but not nearly this cringeworthy. The cinematography is nice though even if the scenery gets chewed by the actors at every available opportunity.

csvd1 Stars Out Of 5"Ruth" movieSeptember 18, 2015csvdQuality: 2Value: 4Meets Expectations: 1The acting was terrible and cheesy - Carman is good looking but should stick to singing!
Make-up on the women was obvious and over all, this was just very disappointing. -
psbrownAge: 35-44Gender: female1 Stars Out Of 5Worst Ever!June 10, 2013psbrownAge: 35-44Gender: femaleQuality: 1Value: 1Meets Expectations: 1This is the worst video I have ever seen from the Christian bookstore! The script is really poorly written. The set is super cheesy. The actors are very poorly cast: Ruth, who should be in her early 20's is closer to 50 yrs. old. The acting is horrible! The story is Biblically inaccurate and it makes a lot of drama out of side issues and ignores the message of the original story. Very disappointing! I threw mine away.

Lana ShiykaGlen Ellyn, ILAge: 45-54Gender: female1 Stars Out Of 5May 19, 2010Lana ShiykaGlen Ellyn, ILAge: 45-54Gender: femaleI was dissappointed with this version. Just like some other reviewers I expected a better quality and cast. Unfortunately, the costumes and the excessive makeup didn't reflect the reality of life in those times: where would you see a simple Jewish woman with painted nails or having such hairstyles?? They looked a lot like just modern average American church ladies with lightly outdated dresses...And truthfully, even keeping close to Biblical account didn't help much. I wish someone comes with a much better movie that this one. I too prefer the old version, even though it's not exactly true to the real story.

mom of manyHamilton MIAge: 35-44Gender: female1 Stars Out Of 5The Book of RuthApril 26, 2018mom of manyHamilton MIAge: 35-44Gender: femaleQuality: 1Value: 1Meets Expectations: 1This video was terrible. Waste of time. I can't believe anyone would enjoy this movie at all. Bad acting. Bad makeup. Lots of dramatic music to take up time with nothing really happening to try to make the video a decent length.
