A misfit group of New Mexico cowboys find themselves on the journey of a lifetime when they learn their crooked-footed racehorse qualifies to run in the Kentucky Derby. Based on the true story of Mine That Bird, the cowboys must overcome impossible odds even before they reach Churchill Downs and the land of Kentucky's blue bloods.

The story of Mind that Bird is a good one and deserves a better movie! This was cheesy and objectively bad for the most part. I was was half paying attention through much of it, but the horse and horse race parts were decent…but the horses get little screen time.
It's embarrassing how cartoonish and dumb this film is. Too bad since the true story is incredible and can be a lot better than Seabiscuit if given to a sane person. The horse was hands down the best actor in this. Also, that scumbag Bob Baffert is a prick who's rigged many races and ruined many people's lives. He got my father's horse kicked out of a race years back for bullshit reasons and paying them off because he knew he would lose to him and was the third-highest money earner. The Kentucky Derby as a whole can go to hell. They don't have the best horses and trainers there. It's just rich assholes who paid their way into them since they know many people there.
Divertida e também sensível história real que resulta em uma agradável sessão da tarde.

Never even heard of this until this Kentucky Derby and so here we are.
It looks like a TV movie and is very predictable but it surprisingly grew on me. Basically Seabiscuit but more lighthearted. I have a soft spot for horseracing movies though.
Haven't seen Christian Kane in many things beyond Leverage but he always brings a fun vibe.
I love a good underdog story. Double like it if it’s a sports underdog story. Triple like if Skeet is the underdog. Ok, so the horse was actually the underdog. But so was Skeet.
Film #2 of Scavenger Hunt #58
Task 2: Watch a movie where a door or gate is integral to the plot
Based on the true story of Mine That Bird; a group of cowboys from New Mexico find out their horse has qualified for the Kentucky Derby. Will his trainer and owners overcome their obstacles and the odds against them to make it to the big race?
Also, why are you asking these questions? If they didn't, there wouldn't be a movie. The major criticism of this seems to be that the film is predictable. Sure, it's predictable. Heck, I live in Kentucky, I remember Mine That Bird's glorious upset win. So, yeah, I knew going in that he's going…
“they get in your blood”
i just love horses okay😭😭
calvin borel maybe the best race anyone’s ever piloted my god. this shit makes me weep.
just the little horse that could 😭 it’s almost like i dedicated my life to working with horses for a reason huh. they give us so much. #grateful
and i love u skeet u are so sexy
This is so so so so so terrible but I kind of liked it in a weird Stockholm syndrome kind of way
I loved door-opening.wav

Best quote:
"I start pissing all over the back of Kelly's jeans. Now...I think it's funny as hell..."
A solid true story, anchored by a good performance from Skeet Ulrich.
Tonally fucked, taking what could have been a passable sports movie to the realm of the ridiculous. The shots of the horse races were good and I kinda liked the dynamic between the trainer and the jockey but this film screams of 'whatever' vibes.
Ok, so not a western as such, but there's horses and cowboy hats so I'll take it (what can I say, I guess I'm easily pleased...).
I have to admit I'm a sucker for an underdog sports movie. I loved Dodgeball, I loved Eddie the Eagle, and guess what? I loved 50 to 1.
This one ticked all the boxes for me (did I mention the cowboy hats?), but if it's not your kind of thing, YMMV...
This one's going straight on my guilty pleasure/pick me up list.
