Win a race, save a ranch
bkoganbing12 March 2019
Young Madeline Carroll who has just made cheerleader at her high school and convinced that is the high point of her life is told by her widower dad Joey Lawrence that she will be spending a few weeks of her summer at Aunt Denise Richards's ranch. She's off reluctantly.

But it turns out to be the adventure of a lifetime. She makes some new friends that wouldn't have been in her social circle back home. Especially one friend, a horse named Pistachio.

Pistachio and Carroll are one great team and they turn out to be the saviors of the ranch.

Nothing here we haven't seen in a gazillion family films with a western location. Still it's good family entertainment.

Who knew people still square danced, and young ones too.

Deplorable Acting, Weak plot, Low Budget
hustlerl18 May 2019
I have to say I'm very disappointed not longer than 5 mins into this movie I was already regretting it. The actors were flat detached basically waiting for each other to deliver their lines a my turn your turn result. Plot did not pay attention to detail with gaps in the facts 1 min she's not missing cher camp the next she's spending 5 weeks at a ranch, 5 cheerleading spots available yet only 4 tryouts were selected simple things that add to convincing viewers of the story. Showed little to no effort by writers, directors & by extension actors. No background music which gave it more of a high-school stage play vibe. Madeline Carroll did her best but had absolutely nothing to work with or feed off. Acceptable for kids 10 & under couldn't make it through.

The rolling tumbleweed

Story about a good down to earth kind-hearted young female lead who wear short/mini skirt all the time trying to live up to her mother's name, the popular horse rider. Its really slow, make me feel like nothing happen for the whole 90 minutes. Its just kind of playsafe along the way. No intense moment at all. Family movie that solely made for kid, just missing the comedy.
