Customer Reviews

A Story of Sister-hood also how Strong-Bonds can be Broken!
Ripe is a prime example of why it's best not to judge a book or a person by it's exterior! If there wasn't a synopsis attached with this DVD, with just the cover alone I would not expect for Ron Brice to be apart of this movie. Ron Brice (Ken) was my rationale for buying this movie! I like how Ken took Rosie under his wing & treated her as if she was his' daughter or neice. I can say thanks to the director for not having Ken & Rosie engage in sexual activity! I was pleased with Ron Brice's, Daisy's and Monica's characters, except for a few things... I couldn't fathom why Violet decided to hide her menstruation from Rosie being that they were so close? Being that all they had were each other Violet should've confided in Rosie. Then when she flushed her panties down the toilet I wanted to slap her, if she had washed it & put it aside then that would've made sense! I was curious to know which 1 was the oldest of the 2? I totally was disturb when Rosie smashed the 2 rats (un-called for). Another part in the movie that I didn't overstand is at the beginning when they played hide & seek with their father, was he playing with them or intoxicated?.. The mother said that she's calling the cops so it wasn't clear if he was playing or just abusive! Maybe he wasn't playing with a full deck, because I can't fathom why he would hold a rifle to little kids like he did! The seargeant's wife Mrs. Hyman was an old red-neck freak! She's promiscuous how dare she commit adultry & she has a little daughter! I loved Rosie's aggressiveness until she killed Pete... Pete invited them into his home & Rosie added insult to injury by killing him! I guess she felt that was the only way to seperate Pete & Violet? (it was wrong) Pete should've told Violet & Rosie about the money he'd received being that they were the reason that he made it!
By keeping it locked in his draw it made him look sneaky! With the exception of Ken (Brice) those guy's behaved like ignorant school boys filled with Hormones. Ken comes to Rosie's rescue when she gets drunk & Jimmy (Vincent) tries to take advantage of her. That's why 1 of the reasons why I'm in love with Brice
because his' roles are always hard-ass tough-guy(s)!!!! I wished that Rosie & Violet would have converse more than they did, then maybe their relationship would not have ended like it did? Violet was a snake for leaving Rosie with out telling her 1st! Violet took the bullets out of the chamber so that Rosie wouldn't commit suicide, but Rosie has access to get more ammunition (so that was redundant)!!!!
Regardless I would recommend this movie to someone with similar taste!
