kevin-42540 Four young men agree to undertake a 6+ month journey riding formerly wild mustangs from Mexico to Canada. If you enjoy adventure documentaries, this has a lot to offer. The story is unique. The cinematography is excellent, with beautiful shots of the remote Western US.The editing choices created a compelling narrative and allowed glimpse into how this crucible affected the humans involved, for better and worse.My only nit is I wanted to hear a bit more post-journey recap to understand how the four friends saw themselves and each other after the fact.

lsmorris-92974 ** spoiler alert ***I found it disturbing some of the places that they road the horses. To purposely ride thru the cactus and to push the horses up such steep, rocky terrain is wrong. The riders I know would not have placed the animals in these bad situations. To watch the horse fall down the rocky slope they pushed him up was very sad and wrong. Horses died. They didn't seem too upset by the deaths. Wild horses or not, I don't think that they took proper care of the animals. I do not believe that both sides of the wild horse issues were shown. The population of wild horses continues to grow. I believe that our public lands are being mismanaged. This movie was a little one sided. On a positive note, there was some beautiful scenery.

Vickie Clancy Challenge set...challenge met for all but one ?? Didn't understand Jonny's decision to bail at the final mile. Made him look childish, impetuous and a little vindictive. Loved the concept and the commitment and was rooting for the guys all the way. Not an easy journey. This movie shows not only the strength and determination of these 4 men but of the horses as well. I knew there was an issue between the wild mustangs and the ranchers but was unaware of the roundup and the grand herd of 50,000 wild horses being penned and waiting on adoption. I'm foreseeing euthanasia being used in the future to control the growing population. Makes me livid. Oh..and where is Ben Masters in the cast credits...HELLO!

stef-05252 There was much anticipation. Waiting for months for the film to be shown, purchasing a ticket without knowing whether there would be enough people to make it happen... then a main stream, big theater here in Madison full of horse people! Trail riders, dressage buffs, horse people and their curious friends and relatives, all with big expectations. What we got: Swiping, incredible vistas; real adventure; a look at the human side; great background about the REAL mustang situation (not the Facebook version...); funny situations, and more. The audience laughed out loud, gasped, sighed, 'awwed' and clapped in the end. What better testimonial? Do yourself a favor and go watch this.
