I wasn’t expecting great things from Seabiscuit, but I did enjoy it. Seabiscuit isn’t a great movie – in fact, it’s like any other horsey or sporty movie you’ve ever watched – but it’s well executed. Being of the horse/sport movie genre, there are plenty of soppy, sentimental moments, but this is to be expected. While Seabiscuit breaks no new ground, the acting is well done, the story is well written, and I certainly had moments when the emotional pull of the movie was almost too much, and I felt myself tearing up.

Its a story about a horse and second chances. How can it not be good?

the book is better.
