    I've heard the critics pan it. But I still want to go see it.

    I received an e-mail from a friend yesterday; he recently saw it and highly recommended it.

    Hubby and I just saw it and highly recommend it. If you ever felt worthless, this is the movie to see to be uplifted.

    I look forward to seeing this movie.

    Many critics loved it. And apparently so dos the public, as it moved up to #5 in money taken in at the American box office this past weekend.

    See the link below where Roger Ebert (America's favorite movie critic) summarized the movie and gave it a rating of 3 and a half out of 4 possible stars.

    I saw it ... and I highly recommend the movie ... retraining Seabiscuit to be a horse again reminded me of retraiing our ex-JW selves to be human again ... a heartwarming story that almost closely followed actual history. - Jim W.

    I finally saw it. Keep in mind that, ever since I was about 9, my father made me sit with him on Saturdays while he went over the Racing Form; he wanted me to learn his betting "systems". He said I had a keen analytical mind. I still can't figure out what he meant....

    Very very slow to start. I thought a lot of the first hour could have been trimmed. More should have been focused on Seabiscuit's "career"/ That said, I was in tears at the end. Very inspirational.
