Wonderfully heartwarming

Rating: Null/10 (20 March 2004)

The true story of an unorthadox race horse and his unorthadox jockey becoming famous on the race track is one of the most heartwarming feel-good movies I've ever seen.You're really in there with Red (played wonderfully by Tobey Maguire) as he races Seabuiscuits against all odds into American history. The excitment, and nerves of the races I felt myself, and there were several times when I welled up, especially at the end. It It is a real pity that this movie was up against the giant that was Return of the King at this years Oscars for Best Picture, as I think it deserved Best Picture just as much as King did. A wonderful, heart warming film. If you feel low down, this is the film to cheer you up. Magical.
