Entertainment Reviews:
...A uniformly splendid cast of comic actors....True farce, uniformly, cheerily nasty...
New York Times
Occasionally crude and tasteless, Ruthless People is a comedy with a vitriolic twist. It`s a comedy about people who love to hate, with actors who make it worth seeing.

....Hilarious....[The directors] fill the movie with comic vigor; they skewer their victims with panache...
Los Angeles Times
The characters here aren't just bad; most of them are truly vile -- human slime. And the film makers chew them up (especially two nefarious bonbons played by Danny DeVito and Bette Midler) with the toothsome glee of jolly cannibals.

Los Angeles Times
It's a rare kind of craftsmanship, and it produces a rare kind of pleasure.

Chicago Reader
At its considerable best, Ruthless People is a riotous anomaly: a very good farce about very bad taste.

People Magazine
The people who made Ruthless People probably expect us to laugh... at the pushy people who populate their story. And they're right: We will laugh -- not because we have lousy taste (and wicked thoughts) ourselves, but because their film is genuinely funny.

Product Description:
In this comedy from the directing team responsible for AIRPLANE!, two kidnappers discover, to their shock, that the husband (Danny DeVito) of the wealthy woman (Bette Midler) they've snatched won't pay the ransom and is, in fact, celebrating the possibility that she may be murdered.It isn't long before the abductors understand why: their captive, who harangues them with a never-ending stream of abuse, is more trouble than she's worth. But as they get to know her, and learn more about her husband, it dawns on the kidnappers that he's no treasure either--and that getting abducted may be the best thing that's happened to their victim in a long time.
