Average Rating: 
Rating:  - SO disappointed
I was so disappointed in this movie. I purchased it to supplement our biblical history home school curriculum. There is very little factual information in this movie. Every character and the timeline are misrepresented. The beauty of Boaz as a picture of Christ is totally lost because of the unbiblical way he initially treats Ruth in this film. Orpha's role is completely wrong and the "closer kinsman" couldn't be any further away from accurate.
Please, if you are looking for a screen ... Read More
Rating:  - My all time favorite movie!
Years ago I happened to see this movie on TV and was deeply touched by it.
Years later in great happiness I was able to acquire a video.
I watch it when I need a spiritual boost. I think all the actors/actresses did a beautiful job. As stated above in other reviews, it does take a lot of liberties Scripturally for romance sake, but the spiritual overtones in this movie, in my opinion, completely make up for it. Elana Eden is wonderful, as well as all the male actors, and I think ... Read More
Rating: - Dramatic movie, but NOT the story of Ruth!
I purchased this movie along with two sets of biblical movies for the benefit of my husband. He said he would be more interested in learning about the Bible if he could visualize it and I thought this would be the perfect way.

I have been watching all the movies with Bible in hand to make sure to point out the ... Read More
Rating: - Timeless story & beautifully done.
This older movie is so well done. The color and actors show what real movies should look like. Timeless my grandkids loved it too.
Rating: - Too bad it doesn't follow the scriptures!
I love the story of Ruth, but unfortunately this movie is more like a Hollywood fairytale. They make up a strange story of Ruth's childhood and present her as a child sold for service to pagan god temple. They also create their own story of how Naomi's husband and sons were killed. Where do they come up with this stuff? The movie rarely follows scripture. I was terribly disappointed and would NEVER recommend this movie because it is so far from the truth. If it doesn't follow God's word, there's no ... Read More
