    Good movie! Go see it!

    Saw this tonight in a theater full of horse people, and we all loved it. Scenic, accurate in terms of back country riding, well produced and filmed. I was pleasantly surprised, expecting a much rougher go-pro kind of thing, but this was slick, well edited and a lot of fun to watch.

    Not much to say about it plot-wise, but you do get a little deeper look at the human dynamics of almost six months on the trail than you'd expect, not to mention a balanced look at the politics of preserving the Mustangs.

    This is a documentary straight out of today's west, showing a lifestyle that's unfettered, offering a welcome relief from all the urban blow-em-ups and superheroes in movies now. It's authentic, even to the cowboy poet singing his own song about the ride. It's well worth seeing, and is one you could take kids to.

    Entertaining

    Never got bored. Amazed at what these guys were able to accomplish.

    Horrible treatment of horses

    When I saw how much danger these beautiful animals were subjected to, it utterly turned my stomach. Those callous sobs should be charged with animal cruelty. I hope someone splits their heads open with a baseball bat.

    Amazing journey of adventure, friendship and trust!

    Beautifully made documentary, with stunning scenery. Not many people will understand the trust it takes for a mustang to let a human sit on his back..so that alone is incredible. I loved the music, the scenery, the friendship, the scary crazy trails and the mustangs!!

    A movie everyone will enjoy, you don't have to be a horse lover to like it. It is not one sided and talks to various people about the plight of the mustang. I could watch this over and over and I hope they release the score to the movie. It makes you want to get out into the wilderness, the footage from the Grand Canyon is absolutely breath taking.

    The Cowboy Val is so like able and the donkey Donquita steals the show!! Thank you for letting us come along on this wonderful adventure.

    Great equestrian documentary.

    I have already viewed this film multiple times & I, personally was impressed. Yet I see multiple other written reviews from clearly soft handed city folk.

    As stated in the film, wild mustangs are always moving, the only difference is the encroachment of modern society which inhibits their natural migration not to mention horses also are meant for traversing hundreds of miles. The amount of complaints from non-horse people is laughable.

    Their plan was not 100% perfect, nor was the terrain a smooth, leisurely ride but it wouldn't have been 300 years ago.

    I understand the concern for the horses, & it goes without saying that they do deserve to be treated & handled properly but their journey wasn't "unnatural" by any means.

    For those of whom lack the ability to apply logic & reasoning, as well as realizing horses are built for tough work & long journeys. I have owned horses since I was a youngin' & nothing I seen in this film was bad enough for me to denounce their actions.

    Calm down you scrawny nags.
