- Skyy dislikedBaby Ruby
The entire movie was strange. The plot wasn’t great, and it seemed extremely jumbled. Postpartum Depression and Psychosis is real, and this movie didn’t do a good job explaining what was happening to Jo. You wouldn’t know what was happening to her unless you are a mother. 2/10
Laughingstalk lovedBaby RubyThis is why mothers need to learn to reach out for help. People need to help moms, it really does take a village.
JayJay dislikedBaby RubyI am a big fan of fever dream movies but this one could’ve been so much better. I understand the need of the crying baby but unfortunately they overplayed the amount of crying in the film.I did like how the fears of motherhood were showcased but again the crying was overpowering
- Tiana dislikedBaby Ruby
I agree postpartum depression should be more openly talked about for mothers but this movie did a bad job at it. It felt like there was no plot or explanation and the lighting was bad not even in a meaningful way just annoying to watch. Ending wasn’t very satisfying
Katie Hallett likedBaby RubyIf this is what postpartum depression & psychosis is like .. that’s terrifying. So many complaints about how much the baby cried in the movie, and it was annoying. I think that was the point…. That the crying literally makes you insane.
Jen dislikedBaby RubyThis movie is horrible. The baby cries the entire movie which just gives you a headache. This movie is slow and boring and drags. Do not waste your time.
- Yaya is "meh" onBaby Ruby
The baby would not stop crying. The movie was boring. Was Jon snow even there? Not really.
Mae is "meh" onBaby RubyIt’s not a bad movie but I didn't expect that, so I'm a bit disappointed
Auntjacq is "meh" onBaby RubyIf yo can get past all of the crying, it’s not too bad of a movie

Baby Ruby operates at a high-pitched melodrama-horror level, and the constant frenzy becomes exhausting. The film's nerves become so frayed there's almost no feeling left in them; the terror is monotonous and repetitive.

Baby Ruby makes a valuable contribution to the emerging cinematic literature on the unspoken realities of women’s lived experience — with style, disarming honesty, and a steady and intelligent hand.
