THE NASHVILLE I If you liked things like The Hangover or Miss Congeniality, then you’ll love Ruthless People. Just a genuinely hilarious script that was very natural, and had that unique gift to do random things but still have then make perfect sense. Middler, Devito, Reinhold and co made up a cast with the balance akin to 10 Things I hare About You. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/12/25 Full Review thiago s Filme ruim, o roteiro é ruim, o filme tentou trazer cenas de comédia, mas não conseguiu, com uma história fraca e desinteressante da esposa sendo sequestrada e mesmo assim ela adorando ver o marido sofrer, o elenco não ajudou em porra nenhuma, e o final tentaram fazer mais cenas engraçadas, só que não conseguiram, com tudo isso, eu não recomendo esse filme, um dos piores filmes de 1986, e dos irmãos zucker. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/03/25 Full Review Rosana B A gratidão da mulher que perde 10 kg, kkkk, uma adorável comédia trapalhona, apesar do título ser uma autoafirmação de tentativa de feminicídio onde outrora o politicamente incorreto não existia (relevemos), divertidinho, o quarteto que amo DeVito, Midler (amo), Helen e Judge, com carinha dos anos 80 e toda simpatia cativante que lhe é peculiar… Uma mulher traída e com a autoestima elevada é capaz e tudo, kkkk, muito gostosinho e engraçadinho... Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/04/24 Full Review Kyle E Warning: Spoilers Not everyone will like this movie but there are many who do. My mom and I absolutely fell out of our seats laughing when we watched this; my brother, on the other hand, barely cracked a grin. Anyway, with an ensemble made up of people like Bette Midler, Danny DeVito, and Judge Reinhold, what more could you possibly ask for? The way I see it, this is a take-off of any kidnapping story that you will see in the news or on true crime TV shows...only there's nonstop comedy at every turn. As my mom and I have said, this is one movie that is not meant to be taken seriously. Mr. DeVito plays a husband who desperately wants to get rid of his wife, who is played by Miss Midler herself. Then you have Judge Reinhold, who plays one of the bumbling kidnappers. DeVito and Reinhold concoct a plan that is surely foolproof, right? Not so much, apparently. From the moment that she is kidnapped, Bette tries everything in her power to buy her captors' trust and get out. Probably one of the most memorable scenes in the movie is when she is on the phone and letting off a string of obscenities that you have to hear to believe. My personal favorite line: "I've been kidnapped by K- Mart!" Every time I hear that line, I can just picture her saying it and then I roll over laughing. In the very end, Bette gets revenge on her husband and her primary kidnapper and walks off into the sunset. Can't go wrong with that, if you ask me. From start to finish, this is a comedy that you have to see to believe. Granted it may not be for everyone, you may like what you see. Enjoy. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/08/22 Full Review William L Certainly not as zany or high-energy as the higher-profile ZAZ comedies, but still cleverly put together and twisty, featuring consistently funny situational humor without giving too many one-liners (which may have been a critical flaw in the film's long-term reputation). An extremely '80s aesthetic to the supposed sophisticated taste and image of wealth (and the fashion) adds a bit of unexpected entertainment value, but the real star is Bette Midler, who delivers a combination of surprisingly comprehensive character development and biting venom in her delivery. Not an all-time classic, but still plenty funny. (3/5) Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/10/22 Full Review Audience Member Absolute comedy classic. A film everyone should see at least once. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
