It's a manqué of a rousing adventure tale and not the real thing. You're constantly aware of the gulf between how the movie wants to excite you and the halfhearted execution.

Popcorn for us and oats for the horses, delivered by the tall drink of water that is Mortensen.

Formulaic, overly simple, too violent for tweens.

The event around which the movie revolves is a desert mirage, since there is no record of any such race ever being staged. Nonetheless, those able to ignore this outrageous historical distortion might enjoy this triumph of an underdog aganst the odds.

If you take it as historical fact, it's got a world of problems. But if you're just in the mood to be entertained, it can be a decent piece of Saturday afternoon escapism.

Even if the story were true, the film's events have been fictionalized beyond belief.

An exciting, colorful and very appealing movie.

... filled with cliches.
