Starring Danny DeVito, Bette Midler and Judge Reinhold, Ruthless People is a hilarious comedy of kidnapping, revenge and double crossing. When a disgruntled couple kidnaps the wife of a wealthy businessman who cheated them, they expect him to pay up. There’s just one problem: he doesn’t want her back! What follows is a wildly funny chain of schemes, surprises and unexpected alliances.
Don’t miss this opportunity to experience an 80s comedy favorite on the big screen and hear from one of its stars in person!
