I think if you are ten years old and love horses you will love this. Unfortunately for me it was one long cliche from beginning to end, no surprise plot twist or anything! Also the riding is atrocious, even the so-called 'advanced' riders were painful to watch. It's obviously one of those 'churned out' movies that they know will attract viewers because it has horses and is heartwarming and I suppose there's nothing really wrong with that, but it could have been so much better.
We watched this film this afternoon and loved it. The young actors were great and it was well directed!
I just attended the premiere of this movie and it was one of the most fun audience experiences for me and my family. The whole audience was laughing, crying, and commenting during the whole show because we could all relate to the very likable characters...as well as some of the more sassy ones.
I overheard one of the young audience members say, "I wish there were more films like these." I couldn't agree more. These days, it is so challenging to find a movie that the whole family can enjoy without being concerned about alarming language or bathroom humor. Even the animated movies are awash with cruddy messages.
This film is filled with lessons about faith, trust, honesty, friendship, stewardship, compassion. It reminded me of the great Sunday night movies that Disney used to broadcast back in the 70s.

This is perfect for the Disney channel. Beautiful Horses, some great scenery, perfect lighting, good acting, good lessons, balanced male - female energy, fantastic real colors on my Plasma TV. My Xbox handled this YouTube movie without any problems. Devan Key was brilliant in this well grounded, safe family movie & what a perfect role. If this movie goes to Disney, I'll sign up. Congratulations!
This is a heartwarming and very well done story of a young girl who is struggling with grief and the horse that helped her to overcome it and find a new lease on life. The acting is superb, the directing is excellent and the script is real life and emotionally engaging.
From the beginning I connected with the actors and the story, through the ups and downs and the difficulties. It reminds me of movies that were once made but now are rarely seen coming out of Hollywood, or anywhere else for that matter.
To my mind it's the best Christian movie I've seen yet.. it's not preachy as some are, nor is it cheap feeling with poor acting or scripting. From beginning to end it shows that with love, support and trust we can face the life issues we all must face at one time or another, and in that find the courage to stand up with trust and faith and continue on in spite of whatever might come our way in life.
