I have seen this movie long time ago. and will be renting it again to show some unsaved. To beleiver you should read the bible its our Job.
We need to meet unbeleiver at their level not ours. They need baby step first. Nothing wrong with movie. It's a movie!. We need to reach the lost. Gods way. Lets keep in open mind when showing movies to always keep the bible at hand to explain the truth. It's the trueth and the way that will draw them in. PRAY!

To the reviewer below me... you do realize, don't you, that the part about Ruth being a priestess to the false god was made up? It's not in the Bible at all. That's what everyone is upset about. The film makers made up a lot of stuff in this movie that doesn't fit with the biblical account. At all.

I actually had some mixed feelings about this movie. In general, you can count on Hollywood to get it wrong when they make a biblical movie. It's a rare movie that even comes close. Having said that, even though there's no proof whatsoever that Ruth was a priestess, the culture she lived in did worship that false god (and probably many others) and they did do child sacrifice. It was one of the things that God called an abomination. There was one scene that really struck me. When she went to talk to the high priest about her doubts about child sacrifice, the high priest told her all the things they got from their god because of the sacrifice. I couldn't help but think that OUR God not only gives us His blessings, but HE came to be our sacrifice. And I think that point was made pretty strongly by this movie. Even if they did have a ton of facts wrong.

I don't know why people were so upset who reviewed this movie. I watched this movie with people who weren't believers and when they saw all the things Ruth was involved in before they were encouraged by her ability to change her mind, renounce her former lifestyle and go with Naomi wanting to worship a living God. It helped them believe God will accept them too. In my book that makes this a great movie!

How PATHETIC! THIS IS NOT BIBLICAL! This is a work of FICTION! REPEAT, read the book of Ruth. Reading the book of Ruth will take less time than watching this film and will leave you with TRUTH, not someone's imagination posing as a Bible story.

THIS WAS HORRIBLE!!! I thought I was going to get the story of Ruth, NOT it didn't really reflect the bible at all. The only good thing about it, it made me read the bible again.. to see if I read it wrong....that is how far off it was. Must NOT see! I give it -5

How disappointed I was when I watched this movie. Not a true reflection of Ruth I learned about in the Bible.
There is so little truth to this movie that I will not show it to anyone.
