The Last Rodeo

The Last Rodeo is the kind of movie you've probably seen many times before, but it hits almost all the right notes and succeeds in providing a good story with emotion. There are three big things The Last Rodeo has going for it:

1 Neal McDonough. He's immensely likable and although his character is a man of few words, what he does say is important.

2) Faith-based movies often "shoehorn" in the gospel message, but The Last Rodeo incorporates faith in an organic manner. It's part of the story and feels natural. It also helps propel the story into a more emotional state without being cloying.

3) The rodeo scenes are well done and actually build suspense. With each ride the stakes are raised, and to the movie's credit it doesn't tip its hand. We never know who's going to win - and who may not survive.

The Last Rodeo is a well made movie with a positive message. There are a lot worse ways to spend a couple hours.

Hard to find good family-friendly movies and The Last Rodeo didn't disappoint. A great message and storyline. The acting was fabulous. And Neal McDonough has the bod of a 20-year-old! We both had thoughts at the end about someone we've had a disagreement with and decided tonight to reach out THANKS TO THIS MOVIE! The actors were excellent, right down to Cody. I missed my Dad more than ever after watching this movie. How many times can I say movie? Another Angel Studios excellent movie. As Guild Members we appreciate the input we have on such movies. Great movie and look forward to many more by Angel.

The Last Rodeo From the start of the film to the end. You were always rooting for Neal McDonough's character Joe Wrainwright to succeed. This Mixed up family drama tells a heart felt story of a father and a grand father doing the right thing

His co star and army Buddy Mykelti Williamson (Charlie Williams) has not been in a better role since Forest Gump. Charlie and Joes relationship really moves you.

There is more to this film than Bull Riding

Christoper McDonald steps out of his villain Stereotype and makes you see another side of his acting talent if you don't need as much explosions this summer. Take your family to the Last Rodeo. You will be glad you did.

The Last Rodeo is a heartfelt family film with strong performances and a touching story about resilience, second chances, and the power of family bonds. While it may not be a groundbreaking masterpiece, it's a well-crafted, emotionally rich movie with genuine acting and a well-paced plot that appeals to viewers of all ages. The cinematography captures the rural charm beautifully, and the soundtrack complements the mood. Most in our group rated it a 6.8/10, reflecting its warmth and entertainment value. It's a solid choice for a cozy family movie night. It gives Yellowstone vibes, so if you enjoyed that series, you should love this movie.

I loved the message and the story. Personal and family commitment is alive and well in real life. This is an exemplary example of what America is like.

It has passion, drive and a reference ro the almighty that guides our daily lives. A great family film that all will appreciate.

The actors are deeply involved in the story and it shows. Great action. Sequences, good sets and locations all top notch.

I particularly liked story set in rural America, but it could apply anywhere. A lot of love an drive was displayed in the film. Angel Studios is the rising star and one to watch. Their films have been very inspiring.
