Undescribable Perfection

Sorry, this movie sucks

Admirable film.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

I don't write reviews but this was so horrible I had to make an account and comment.... as a professional horseback rider and instructor this movie was unrealistic and the riders equitation (simply their positioning and riding) was horrible it all honestly made me cringe. I had to watch to the end just because I was so stunned. These horses were such saints and put up with so much from these actors like dropping the reins or riding with their hands by their noses and practically falling over their necks. STUNNED Mississippi College allowed their horses to be used in this way.

I don't understand why this movie is being hated on. I feel as though it was well-made, inspiring, and heartfelt.The story shows a very beautiful pony. I believe that it was probably a full-blooded Off the track Thoroughbred because it such a good mover. Also I would be scared to jump that high, and I don't think my Gypsy Vanner pony could jump that high. The riders are amazing, they will probably go on to the Olympics and etc. someday. If you think they aren't good, you probably have no idea about horses and I would like to see you do better!! they have amazing three-point positions over the jumps (aka cross rails, verticals, and oxers)The story made me cry, because one time my pony got colic so I could relate to Misty spraining her ankle. I think she got it because I kicked her too hard, just like how the little girl hurt her pony's foot by pulling on her rains. it is so hard to suffer the pain of knowing you have hurt you're horse.. luckily Misty recovered.btw my Gypsy Vanner pony is named Prince (aka show name Prince of Charming) and he is black and white. Anyway the story was realistic, and inspiring. Believe in your horse and u can soar just like me and Prince who are now showing in the 2'3" show jumping divisions :-)

This movie was not good, I have been riding for quite a few years now and I can only jump 2.9 but the riding in this movie was terrible. The posture was awful, they were hunched over and always leaning forward they didn't even have to 2 point, I am surprised they weren't falling off when jumping. Also this movie is completely unrealistic you can't sprain a horses ankle because you pulled to hard on there reins will trotting, also why were you even pulling on the reins the horse wasn't moving anywhere. Plus where was everyone else in the barn there were a total of 2 girls there and now one isn't even riding anymore! Another unrealistic thing is that if that girl had been riding since she was 6 then why was she such a bad rider, her and the little girl were the same level. Last the girl would have never won the competition she would have been last place defiantly. Even though there are many other things wrong with this movie I must stop here because I will run out of words. I give this movie the total of 0 stars but I can't give it that because apparently there is no such thing as a movie that bad.

While this film features horses as central to the story, horses are not really present through much of the story until the 'big finale' scene. The film is more centered on a little girl who is struggling after her mother left, or died, or something and she is dealing with her Dad's new girlfriend. There is also a side-story of another, older teen girl, who is rebellious and doesn't like competing in horse shows. She takes out her anger on the younger girl and eventually goes to kill or hurt one of the horses with a shovel, but thankfully the black guy ranch hand / aka indentured servant, catches her and talks her out of it. (whew!). Overall, this film is silly and bland - with a rushed ending that puts all the pieces together in record time and everybody lives happily ever after.
