1. Who's that at the door?!
It's Secretariat!



Secretariat was a cool film, but it you really want to cry rent Ruffian:

2. I want to - it wasn't at RedBox yesterday, so I rented "The American"
instead - going to start it now. But I *really* want to see "Secretariat"!

6. I thought it was OK - better than "Salt" which we also saw recently...
but I didn't love the movie. Wish "Secretariat" had been available on this snowy night.

3. My Mom, my wife and I went and saw it -- we all loved it!
It's a great story, and the movie did a good job of telling it.

I give it two thumbs up.

5. It's very good. Well acted and family friendly
The chief complaint is that there is too much information about the battle within the Tweedey/Chenery family and not enough just about Big Red.

9. I enjoyed it
Sometimes it played a little heavy-handed, but hey, it still was good.
