This movie is based on a true story about Lane Frost and his rise to fame. It shows you the challenging times he had to go through to get to where he wanted. It shows how he found his first love with both bull riding and with Kellie.

I think this movie was very good. It shows you the real side of things and I like the fact that it is a real life story. This movie bought a tear to my eye and I'm sure it did to a lot of other people too. Just the whole story of Lane Frost is heart touching. I would recommend people to see this film. It is a really good movie.
