Ruthless People is one of those films that seems to have been forgotten. It really is a great film, well acted and great fun. Bette Midler does a great over the top performance and shows that she really can act. Judge Reinhold does a stirling job as the kidnapper and Danny DeVito doesn't let the viewer down either. The storyline of kidnapping a rich mans wife seems straightforward enough, but as the film progresses the story becomes more complex and much more fun. This is a fun film and should be watched again and again. Well deserved five stars.
Good comedy films are very rare so we have to go back to the past, ,and very good this film is. When you look actors up in Wikipedia,you see the films they took part in,and I found this film, and bow I am expected Thin Men'from Ebay,my grandson will be happy, he likes older films.

I've already seen this film a couple of times and can watch it over and over again. It really is laugh out loud funny, but has its serious moments and the plot is very clever.
