SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Irishchatter I found out about this film from just researching racism films on Google and this one of them that popped up here. I even read the real Ruby Bridges Wikipedia page to get what happened in her life and I swear, it was mindblowning to think a little girl like her, was one of the first black pupils to walk to a white school in the state's at that time. I mean christ, I say it was pure shocking to her. I was horrified but not surprised that they would hold disgusting stuff like a a black doll in a coffin or having someone threatening poison at ya. Imagine having white trash saying stuff right at your face every time you go to school and the fact you are coloured. I swear that made my blood boil to 100 degrees. It was pure ignorant and disgusting back then when white people were treating black people as different. Whites and blacks are equal as each other! Unfortunately racism still continues to this day!I just think Ruby Bridges among Rosa Parks, Martin Luther king and others, are so inspirational to highlighting racism in this world and are such icons to make us hear their voices. I have to say, well done to Disney and the cast for being involved with sharing this story!

gapeach1004 This was a really great movie up until the part where they acted like the north didn't have slaves. Perpetrating stereotypes is wrong. This movie is trying to teach a message and it puts this in there? Give me a break. I know this happened in Louisiana as to why the movie is set there, but that doesn't mean the north is automatically some great place where everyone got along.I still enjoyed the movie. I really feel for Ruby and her struggle.

jakew-6 And I don't mean that in the way that everyone says during a bad movie. This was honestly the most terrible film I have had the misfortune to view. The acting was terrible, but I don't really blame the actors, because the script was on the level of a fourth grade play. There were times when I laughed out loud at the words coming out of the actors mouths. There is also an angry mob that chants one thing over and over through out the entire film, and it eventually becomes funny. Many parts just didn't make sense, and the people acted very strangely, as if they were in an illogically blocked, once again, fourth grade play. Even the scoring was bad. Everything about this movie was just horrid. I have seen Disney Channel sitcoms with twice the acting, writing, and production of "Ruby Bridges". No one in their right mind could think this movie has any value, regardless of the subject.

Frankiezyx@aol.com What would you expect? Pap, pure pap. No context, no content. And by the way, in 1960 6-year-old girls would have gotten their behind paddled for saying "butt." Now they tell me I have to fill up 10 lines, so here goes. Meet Mom: Gentle, loving, Christian, patient, hardworking. Meet Dad: Gentle, loving, Christian, patient in a manly way, hardworking. Meet the local Jew: As racist as any cracker in New Orleans, but she sees the light. Meet Ruby: Obedient, smart, strong, brave. Meet the new teacher: Sweet, kind, considerate, not a racist bone in her Yankee body. Meet the old teachers: Racist, dour, prim and proper. Meet the psychiatrist: Caring, racist as the day is long but Ruby teaches him better! Meet the NAACP: Light skinned and they own a piano.
