Laufen. Reiten. Rodeo.

Every now and then, we come across stories like this that inspire us and bring us little closer to the rhythm of life... I usually do not write reviews of uplifting and feel-good movies.. however, watching this one with a rider at home almost compelled me :-) story of a young girl's struggle to coming to terms with a bitter reality and her determination.. to some extent it does lack emotional aspect, depth of the situation and characterization a little, but stories like this deserve to be told.. Convincing performance by the protagonist..

As a wheelchair user myself, I had an interest in this story. I like seeing my fellow "wheelies" succeed beyond what society expects of them. Ms. Snyder's story is indeed compelling. Unfortunately, the overdone melodrama in this film actually undercuts it, in my opinion. And a couple of elements in this film make it clear it was done on the cheap. Still, I thought the lead actress did a good job. And I like that Ms. Snyder -- whom this film is about -- did stunt riding in this film. A positive step for including people with disabilities in making movies.

Based on the true story of one of rodeo's most beloved athletes, this movie is wonderful. It is very heartwarming, but be prepared because it will make you cry. The obstacles this girl overcame is nothing short of amazing.

Not familiar with the real story this was based on,so no disrespect in that regards.. However was lacking in several aspects,which caused its downfall. Actors chosen,their subpar acting & the inspirational one liners became a bit much. It wasn't perfect,bit cheesy but still a film to pass time or.. Maybe help you if,going through a difficult situation. Sorry. Not something to watch,more than once.

I had a back injury in 2005, watching this movie was very emotional for me. No matter the odds you have to go on, and find a way as much as it hurts or as frustrated as you get. Having a special bond with animals will help you through. Stories like this need to be told. You never know if one day it will happen to you.
