DVD Reviews of Dreamer - Inspired By a True Story (Widescreen Edition)

DVD Review: Great! Thanks
Summary: 5 Stars

Thanks for sending this movie in a timely manner - good shape, too. Thanks!

DVD Review: Dreamer
Summary: 5 Stars

This is one of the best movies ever. I use it in my class every year and the students love it. We read the book and then compare it to the movie. I would recommend this to any one with children. A little foul language but nothing too bad.

DVD Review: Love Kurt Russell and Dakota Fanning
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is such an inspiration to me, it is clean to watch with the family and who doesn't love Kurt Russell and Dakota Fanning.

DVD Review: Dreamer- for days when you need a lift
Summary: 3 Stars

A fun, kid-safe film about a young girl's love for an injured racing mare, and what her family will do to help prove that mare's quality. A little deep sometimes for kids and a little sweet for adults, this film doesn't quite fit anyplace and so has been overlooked, but is worth a look when you need something cheerful and simple.

DVD Review: Say 'Yes' to buying this.
Summary: 5 Stars

For those of us who never deserted the horse-love stage of our lives, this movie is a must. For children who are still in that stage of growing, another must. For MEN, yes, even the ones who run from any movie which may be mildly scented as a chick-flix, you really need to see this movie. Do it in mixed company or alone but do it. More than one male aquaintance has borrowed this DVD to show to someone else. It is not suprising how every one of them commented positively about the content.

It is much more than a horse story. The fences mended here father-son relationships, father-child, husband-wife, rational brain & compassionate soul.

Kurt Russell & Kris Kristofferson are the best in the son/father roles.

Description of Dreamer - Inspired By a True Story (Widescreen Edition)

A DRAMA ABOUT A FATHER WHO, FOR THE LOVE OF HIS DAUGHTER, SACRIFICES ALMOST EVERYTHING TO SAVE THE LIFE OF AN INJURED RACEHORSE AND BRING THE PROMISING FILLY BACK TO HER FORMER GLORY. INSPIRED BY A TRUE STORY.
The title is a mouthful, but Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story hits the winner's circle as a warm and inspiring family film. Ben Crane (Kurt Russell) is a Kentucky horse trainer who watches in horror as a championship filly breaks its leg during a practice run. Ordinarily that means curtains, but today Ben's daughter, Cale (Dakota Fanning), is at the track, and Ben impulsively buys the horse and loses his job in one fell swoop. The rehabilitation process is almost too much for a farm that's already struggling to survive in a modern economy, but the horse turns out to be a much-needed salve to the nearly broken family, including Ben's wife (Elisabeth Shue) and father (Kris Kristofferson). The cast is excellent, especially Fanning (who at age 11 has become a major star and was branded by Entertainment Weekly as the most powerful actress in Hollywood), and the film is well-paced by director-writer John Gatins and beautifully shot by cinematographer Fred Murphy. Surely the ultimate fate of the horse and the family won't surprise anyone, but young girls who love horses often don't need a surprise ending. They need a reason to cheer, and Dreamer delivers all the way. (Ages 6 and older: moments of horse peril) --David Horiuchi
