Citizen Ruth

Consumer Rating: Citizen Ruth Reviews and Ratings - Rating 3.5/5   See 11 reviews  | Write a review
Information: Product details
Price Range: $0.90 - $9.99 at 7 stores
A misguided drifter with a penchant for inhaling aerosol fumes to get high finds herself in the middle of a heated national debate after she's arrested (again) and discovers she's pregnant (again). The judge offers to let her off lightly if she has her pregnancy "taken care of," but when she's put in a cell with a group of pro-life protestors, her new roomies "adopt" her and try to force her to have the baby. A double-edged satire from first-time feature director Alexander Payne.

The Abortion Armageddon

by  panguitch ,  Aug 13, 2003
74 out of 74 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Hilarious. Much needed.
Cons: Cons: none. Cautions: strong language and adult themes.
The Bottom Line: Abortion is a very serious issue. Sometimes we most need to laugh at the things we take most seriously.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Everybody knows the main character has to be sympathetic, right? If you can t sympathize with the main character you won t care about the movie or book. If people don t care, they won t be affected, won t be changed by your work. And the only way...

Baby Savers vs. Hippies, All for a Glue-Sniffing Loser

by  thevoid99 ,  Apr 8, 2005
70 out of 70 people found this review helpful.
Pros: Payne's Direction, Script, Score, Locations, & Cast led by Laura Dern.
Cons: Some Who are Serious about Abortion Won't Like This Film, & a Topless Burt Reynolds.
The Bottom Line: "Citizen Ruth" is a Smart, Witty Satire Debut Feature from Alexander Payne & Co. led by Laura Dern's Hilariously Complex Performance.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review:
In this age of political turmoil, it is clear that whenever there's a political issue going around. It's always the person in the middle that becomes the real victim. Most recently, Americans were divided over the issue of euthanasia concerning...

The Abortion Debate... Rendered Funny

by  serc ,  Sep 9, 2000
38 out of 38 people found this review helpful.
Pros: hilariously skewers both sides of the abortion debate
Cons: ending an anticlimax
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: In honor of the upcoming election, I will be (hopefully) viewing and reviewing one movie with a political theme each week until Election Day. This week I chose Citizen Ruth, a movie that satirizes everyone's favorite wedge issue,...
