Les Obstacles de la vie

I like it, it's a good movie for horse lovers. I like the actors they made a amazing job.

Yes, I did try to watch it, but the movie just reminded me like some crappy productions from Lifetime or Hallmark, so lame in screenplay, lousy storyline, cliched rich girl vs poor girl formulaic crap. One more thing that annoyed me a lot is the soundtrack, the music was just so pretentious like the storyline. This movie also signed up several have-beens or had-been actors to help the viewing numbers, but they were just too ugly or too old to render any watchability. The dialog sounded more staged and forced. Bore-you-to-death storyline. All the on-goings were so boring and predictable. Many phony personalities, even with certain racial discrimination.

If you decided to watch it, just pay attention to those beautiful horses, forget those phony hypocrite characters come with them; a necessary evil, I guess.

I am a sucker for true stories and this movie is based on real events within the American horse world in our recent past. The actors are all great at their jobs and were typecast very well for their parts. William Shatner plays a typical businessman, void of any personal feelings of how his decisions might affect those around him.

Ving Rhames carries his role as a somewhat kindred spirit to the lead character and is allowed to explain in the movie why he makes stands when stands are needed.

This film has very good production values and a great soundtrack as well.

Don't be afraid to see what might be considered a "family" film as the film has something for pretty much anybody who likes horses and good people going thru "class struggles" within a tight knit horse-related community of rich snobs and their "toys".

I was watching this movie in my dorm room when my roommate walked in, and she nearly dropped her travel mug! She worked under Debi in Florida and was trained for a good deal of her life by her. I started it over and we watched it together, and according to her, the movie is extremely accurate. Way to go for taking a true story and going out of the way to alter the history as little as possible!

I loved it! I do recommend it and will watch it again, for sure! 😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍
