Summary: Watch it and judge for yourself...
Review: This is one of my favorite movies... mostly because it is so much more than a horse movie.. it is one man's journey into getting his life back on track by doing what he knows is right when all other voices are against him... After watching this movie you will understand the meaning of the words: "conviction of the heart". There is one of the most unique chase scenes I have ever watched and the cinematography of the horse as well as the incredible country scenes is breath taking... Give it a try... I think you will be pleasantly surprised...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: the horse is the real star here. Horse lovers will love it.
Review: This movie is a slow starter with the usual macho man who can't control his fame scenario. In this picture Jane Fonda serves woodenly as the female interest against Redford's usual laid back performance. The action picks up as the real star - the horse - comes into the picture. For lovers of horses this picture offers some of the best chases and insight into what goes on in a horse lover's mind. Exceptional finish. They couldn't have come up with better footage of a beautiful horse running free than this. All in all a very good picture if you ignore the human part of the plot.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Funny, Romantic, and Dramatic... and Robert Redford!
Review: When washed-up rodeo champion Sonny Steele (Robert Redford) steals a Quarterhorse named Rising Star (who's a similarly washed up former champ), he sets off on a cross-country adventure with the goal being to set the horse free. The law follows, as does a tenacious reporter (Jane Fonda) who gets more story than she bargained for. Wonderful story of redemption and the right to personal freedom.
