I liked the pace, style, acting, quirky people and the encredibly sweet story. Made me smile and cry at the same time. Some might find it a bit cheasy which might be the reason why it got a low score, but I thought the acting was solid and the storyline compelling. Uncomplicated.

Pretty standard fare but it was well produced. The star was really the horse. There was one scene during the race that the horse really did run flat out!! That was amazing!!

The three reviews are all correct. I gave it a 5-6 as I love positive movies and am tired of all the negatives, especially as I have fled from a country with a narco dictator and I needed something uplifting. The negative comment was also correct as some of the scenes were so far fetched that they detracted from the plot, as shown in the race, the most extreme but not solely un plausible scene. The other negative which bothered me is the "condemnation" of the mother trying to save her child, still a minor. This sets a bad presidence for youth at the same time it was criticizing medical advances.

The only thing I didn't understand is why that character had to exit. Why? WHY? I mean, the story is veering towards the ideal direction, WHY NOT JUST INCLUDE THE WHOLE PACKAGE? 😭 Okay fine. I do understand. It shows THAT side of the situation. But it's just not cool man, not cool. To say that it's heartbreaking is an understatement.

I do think that they didn't intend for the movie to be that deep; just enough for people to see and gain perspective. I'm saying this because the movie is FILLED with out of this world nonsense that's just there to further sensationalize your viewing experience. So, chill with the realistic points; you'll only tire yourself. 🤣

Jana, 17, has a congenital heart defect. To defy fate, Jana seeks out all challenges, immersing herself in all wild and dangerous adventures. She has a heart condition, but her spirit is free. After bonding with an untamable horse, Jana trains to compete in a race, risking her own life. ...

I am a young "Lady" who loves sugary and dramatic teen movies. I recently watched a very similar movie, with a horse + a rebellious girl, but it wasn't heart-related, just as cute. This German movie is simple, delicate, predictable (that very basic cake recipe) aiming to captivate with emotion... Cute, pure juice of tear-jerking entertainment (it didn't even make me that emotional, but the soundtrack tried hard)...

Nothing new here, pretty predictable. If you start thinking about it too much, the plot holes begin to manifest themselves, but nothing beyond what would be expected of a movie of this type; it's probably a bit better than average for a movie of this genre. (Frankly, what I will remember most from this film, which I watched, dubbed, on Netflix, was that the dubbing and the subtitles were from different translations. The meanings were generally the same, although not always, and the profanity was more limited in the subtitles. The usage of the word "amateur," for somebody riding for a cash prize, also seemed a little strange.)

I saw a review on this movie that said the words didn't match up with lip movement, but if you're watching it on Netflix, it's in a language other than English, which is why the words don't work right.

There are a lot of great dramas about disease and animals helping through the process of recovery and etc, but this is definitely not the case, I felt it had a lot of potential with some pretty decent acting but it's not used really well, the dialogue is just predictable as the storyline, nothing really remarkable happens but you can kind of enjoy if you just turn you brain off a little and just enjoy some sweet moments between this teenage girl and that beautiful horse. Just don't go for this looking for a great film, it's just forgettable but you can enjoy it a little if you're not looking for something complex and deep.

Whether you like horse movies or medical challenge movies try to kick back and enjoy true to life warm moments this movie offers.

A young woman with a potentially lethal health issue meets a beautiful big talented horse who has equally challenging temperament issues,which for horses are also potentially lethal.

You'll see those criticize this for plot or cinema graphic imperfecrions. Have they not heard "Art imitates life?". In real life, the vast majority of people carrying a disability label, don't want to be told what they cannot do, especially at Jana's age(film's protagonist). Too many talented horses Have been completely given up on,or met tragic fates, because as social creatures they were deprived of developing emotional bonds that are so integral to a healthy horse. A good horse will give you their all & their everything when a bond is forged. For these reasons, and not pretending to be a professional film critic, I think the film perfectly hits all its marks. For critical reviews here, I ask- which language version did you watch?(several avail); how many horses have you lived with &/or ridden?; How many inner cowgirls have you known? True cowgirls &/or other disciplines of horsemanship have met rider's who's anatomical self won't cooperate with thier heart, brain & spirits desires? All that Ive known also muscle up and put immense effort into living as well as appearing as normal bodied as everyone else. This is one integral trait shared with a well matched horse.

Lastly for those claiming predictability, That indeed is how many times art imitates life. Rock my heart is enjoyable entertainment for all who give it a chance.

Perfection!! Just perfection. Beautiful!! The last 30 min made my cry so hard. This is a movie for inspiration. It made me realise that what ever you are going through, how hard it is, you can make it. Beautiful! One to watch!

A heartwarming tail. This is a believable tail. Being someone who has worked with horses and know that a horse can actually do the things in the story. Horses have personality's just like people. I can relate to the lead character in the story because I have a heart condition and never let it get in the way of achieving the impossible. I was a teen when dignosed and I also rebelled against my elders when they told me I could not do things I knew in my heart I could. Its not a story about rebellion but about the love and bond a girl and a hose have. Amazing story and a great watch.

The voices do not match the lip movement. It's very annoying.

It made me cry. It's a really great and lovely movie, great actors.. <3 I enjoyed it a lot. It's worth your time. :) We love it here in the Philippines :)

This movie was truly amazing. I love horse and how they can understand humans at times. If you love Horses watch this movie. Also watch Heartland.
