Wild Horse, Wild Ride Reviews
St. Louis Post-Dispatch Joe Williams
A cynic could wield a lash against "Wild Horse, Wild Ride," but the golden vistas, galloping horses and gracious humans tame us. New York Daily News Joe Neumaier
This gorgeous-looking documentary is crying out to be remade as a family film feature. Shared Darkness Brent Simon
A solid little snapshot of sub-cultural curiosity -- engaging and big-hearted, if sometimes politely incurious about the disparate motivations of its subjects. Los Angeles Times Gary Goldstein
With its gorgeous big-sky vistas, stirring shots of the majestic mustangs and intimate bits between trainers and trainees, "Wild Horse" proves a warm and memorable ride. San Antonio Current Kiko Martinez
Spreads the narrative too thin and becomes repetitious over the course of three exhausting months. Common Sense Media Tracy Moore
Moving docu shows depth of human-horse bond. New York Times Daniel M. Gold
This documentary shows the beginning of some beautiful friendships. From the Front Row Mattie Lucas
With a little more narrative structure there is certainly a compelling subject here. But there is no sense of urgency, no immediacy to keep it going. Reeling Reviews Laura Clifford
...how I wish they'd addressed just why anyone would bid against these selfless trainers for their horses, but these animals are beautiful and Dawson and Gricus make a great case for what can be accomplished with a lot of love and patience. Paste Magazine Shannon M. Houston
Wild Horse, Wild Ride takes the viewer on an unforgettable journey across the American Southwest where, together, man and beast reign supreme. Reeling Reviews Robin Clifford
These everyday horse whisperers, and their noble steeds, are an inspiration to all. There's nothing fancy about the technical package...but the beauty of the land and the horses themselves, and the varied personalities of the trainers, more than carry the film. Austin Chronicle Kimberley Jones
Frustrations abound with this limited film, but Wild Horse, Wild Ride does one thing exceptionally well, and that is convey the emotional bond between trainer and horse. Slant Magazine Calum Marsh
If this sounds like the premise of one of those tiresome Discovery Channel docu-tainments, it's because it essentially is, only heavily abbreviated to fit the feature-film format. Village Voice Michelle Orange
We get some sense of the horses' range of personalities; clearer is the nature of each trainer's attachment. An engrossing study in the communication possible (and sometimes near-impossible) between man and beast.
