Customer Reviews of Rubi

Great DVD
Every young woman yearns for a life full of prosperity, some of us sweat blood and tears to achieve those expectations we call happiness. While other's bend beyond the boundaries of evil to reach a life full of wealth and luxury. <
>Rubi is exactly that, a tale of a young woman born into poverty but destines to live a life full of wealth and luxury and will go to any length to achieve her goal. <
>From the beginning I was hoping that someday Rubi would realize that having all the money in the world would not be the key to her happiness. But watching every single step of her immorality is what had me hooked. <
>Rubi was full of shocking and unthinkable moments. Abandoning her true love and stealing her best friend's fiancé were two pivotal situations that had me on the edge of my seat. <
>At the end, once it was too late, Rubi realizes that wealth and luxury is not the key to happiness. <
>I found Rubi to be very rewarding because it depict the notion that good always prevails over evil.

Rubi DVD content
One of the reviewers states that the soap opera is not all chopped up. Rubi on DVD is edited and the often boring subplots are gone from this DVD version. Since some of the scenes are omitted there are some scenes that comment on action that has been editted out of this DVD collections. However, most of the major scenes are there.

The poor man's "Teresa"
I hardly ever watch television, much less novelas. The only reason why I acquired this DVD was because a friend made a comment to me that made me want this. This is a REMAKE of the 1990 Televisa soap "Teresa", starring the then unknown Mexican beauty SALMA HAYEK. I have not seen this novela in years and was always a fan of it (and still am of Salma Hayek). <

>This is the exact same novela, scene by scene. It's amazing how Televisa finds it necessary to re-hash their stories. But when is "Teresa" itself going to be released on DVD??? Do they not release their old soaps so they can rehash them to new audiences? People know the difference, believe me. People knew that "Luz Clarita" was a remake of "Chispita", that "Salome" was a remake of "Colorina" and recently that the novela starring Thalia's niece is a remake of "Rosa Salvaje". Why bother, Televisa? <
> <
>But that being said, "Rubi" itself is a decent novela, but Barbara Mori is missing that fire and spark that Salma Hayek brought to the original. Sure she's gorgeous, no denying that. But her role wasn't believable as the calculating and money hungry social climber as she was supposed to be. This role was perfect for Salma and it's a shame this remake couldn't get a similiarly talented star. A pretty face isn't everything <

>I'm just waiting for them to release "Teresa" and all the classic Lucía Méndez soaps.
