Dreamer is a Great inspirational movie
I used this with my women's group, some of whom had become discouraged from illnesses and accidents. It really lifted them up!

Review of Dreamers
I really loved this movie. If you liked Seabiscuit this is a movie you're sure to enjoy.

Many times stories based upon true stories can be more interesting than fiction. I loved the reality that showed discouragement, loneliness, doubt and yet at the same time hope, courage, winning against all odds on several fronts and the belief and empowering of one's child.

Great story that leaves you feeling good afterwards.

Fantastic, Inspiring Movie
I absolutely love this movie! It's enjoyable for the entire family and an incredible story of overcoming struggles and chasing your dreams. Also, the best part is that it's inspired by a true story. Dakota Fanning is fantastic as usual and the way she and Kurt Russell work together on this film is a joy to watch. Anyone who is a fan of horses or horse racing should watch this movie.

This is a very good fact based drama. The story is solid, but what makes this film outstanding is the cast chosen, and not enough good things can be said about them. Kurt Russell is a horse trainer from Kentucky. His look and mannerisms are spot on, and he carries this role well. Dakota Fanning is the daughter and the heart of the movie with Elizabeth Shue cast as mom. Kris Kristoferson is the father/grandfather, and no one could have played this role. His gruff unbending exterior is flawless.

This is a story about a young girl, her Father and Grandfather on a ranch that once was known for raising race horses but no longer boards any horses. Kurt Russell and Dakota Fanning do a great job of acting as well as does Kris Kristofferson. I enjoyed watching this movie with my Grandchildren serveral times. Excellent movie.

Never in my life....
It is very hard to make a horse racing movie and capture the beauty of family. I think that DREAMER:INSPIRED BY A TRYE STORY hit this on the head.
Young Cale just wants to be with her father at his job as a trainer for horses who race and when she goes with him, tragety strikes the track. A beautiful chestnut mare falls and shatters a bone, and her snooty owner wants to let her go, but Cale's father gets mad at the owner and takes the mare and is fired.
A new life is placed in front of Cale as she understands her father better after a chain of unforgettable events.
I thought that this movie would be a flop- after all, no movie that I had ever seen had been able to capture the true magic of horses in racing and the power of family. With a superb cast including the charming Dakota Fanning, good old Kurt Russell, and classic Kris Kritoferson- I didn't spell that right, but who cares?
I pray this helped,

Dreams Come True
This is a great Disney movie. It will bring tears and joy like "Old Yeller" or "Eight Below". Based on a true story it tells of a young girl saving a racing horse from being destroyed from a leg injury and the miraculous recovery that followed. This is a feel good family movie. So if you want something you can show them all, grab this one. Good cast with Kurt Russell, Elizabeth Shue, Kris Kristofferson, and Dakota Fanning. Great quality DVD with extras and above average replayability.
