About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an emotional sports biopic with romance, family tension, and rodeo culture, similar in spirit to Prefontaine or Rocky V; Not for you if you dislike sad, sometimes slow dramas.
Pros: heartfelt true-story drama; strong performances; exciting rodeo moments | Cons: slow stretches; uneven tone; some cheesy, dated bits
