Not enough info about the horse!!

Rating: Null/10 (5 February 2004)

Yes, I agree with your evaluation that this is a very good movie and great story. What bothered me about the film was how long it took before the main character was introduced into the story. Once the horse was brought into the film, the movie got real good and had an inspirational ending. What bothered me was how little we learned about Seabiscuit. How many races did he enter and win? How much money did he win for his owner? How long did he live after he stopped racing and was he put out to stud to manufacture other "little Seabiscuits?" A truly great film about a certain character whether it is a war hero, sports great or even a famous horse should both entertain and teach us about this character's life and times. We should come out of this film knowing a lot more facts about this character than we did before we saw the film. While "Seabiscuit" was very entertaining, it left out important facts about the main character that left me wanting to find out more about this horse that the movie failed to tell us.
