 Hearts of ChampionsJan 06, 2011
By William Jurgens
This is a great film for everyone, especially if you lived at the time of SECRETARIAT. This was the first movie I have seen in about 2 years, and the first in a long time that I was excited about and truly wanted to see. In 1973, Secretariat touched everyone in this country. Just about everyone was talking about and rooting for this horse. But, in addition to telling the story of a champion Triple Crown winning horse, this film tells the story of just how implausible the events behind the champion were. While taking a few moments of dramatic license, it effectively tells the story of the background of this thoroughbred legend as was brilliantly laid out by William Nack, in SECRETARIAT, THE MAKING OF A CHAMPION. I have heard about and read reviews that this was more Penny's story than Secretariat's story, maybe so, but the truth is, without Penny, there would be no Secretariat. This is no different than SEABISCUIT, which was as much the story of the three individuals who brought immortality to that horse as well. In short, this is a must see film, and is thoroughly entertaining and enjoyable. For once you can see a movie and feel good about what you have seen; the story of a horse with a tremendous heart nurtured on by people with the heart to believe. HE IS MOVING LIKE A TREMENDOUS MACHINE,(from Chic Anderson's immortal call during the Belmont Stakes).

 Injustice to one of the greatest horsesJan 17, 2011
By Ellen Zehnder
The movie was good, but not great. For non-horse people; they'll think it's wonderful. For the horse person, who knows the story of Secretariat; they'll see all the flaws. For one, Penny Chenery was not present at the birth of Secretariat. For another, the movie makes you think she was thrown into the world of horses with Secretariat. Not the case, she was into it before that. Does anyone remember Riva Ridge, the horse she had the year before Secretariat? He won the Kentucky Derby and The Belmont in 1972. She loved Riva Ridge. Sham's owner was not the jerk that Disney made him out to be, and Lucien Laurin was not the colorful, outlandish person they made him out to be, either. And filming Secretariat's Triple Crown - Belmont win at Keeneland had no comparison to Belmont Park which is huge. And what was with the gospel song when he won it. I wanted to be swept away with emotion when he won that race. It was such a monumental victory that one needed to cry tears of joy. Instead I got a gospel song. Don't get me wrong; Keeneland is a beautiful racetrack, but it's not Belmont or even close. All in all, it was just good, unlike Seabiscuit that brought all the emotion and greatness of this horse to the screen so you could feel it.

I thought it was good.Oct 24, 2011
By Sertorius
The story of Secretariat must be one of the pinnacles of American life in the last century. While watching this movie, no less than twice I might add, I reflected how the 1970s seemed the zenith of American civilization: the epic of Secretariat, Bobby Fischer's conquest of the world chess championship, the birth of the Star Wars saga in cinema, the birth of role playing and video games, and the genesis of the internet and personal computer were all products of this destiny-laden decade in the United States. Thanks to movies like Secreriat, we can immortalize in art the triumphs of yesteryear, making them into myth as the age sadly westers past its meridian. (cf. Lovecraft's "He" for the full details.)
Secretariat recounts the story of the horse's rise to win the triple crown. I guess the movie did not get better critical mention than it did because it seems to have been an obvious take off of Seabiscuit from a couple of years prior. I liked Secretariat better than Seabiscuit because the later movie conveyed a greater authenticity by including more realistic detail about the horse-racing industry. I also found the script more poetic and compelling, especially the thematic quotation from the book of Job. Most of all, Secretariat felt like a genuine, innocent story with none of the diseased and contrived tripe that other Hollywood movies purvey, like the movie Inception.

 Eddie Sweat had the true connection to SecretariatDec 23, 2010
By ColoradoDVM
I was unimpressed with this movie. The title character was more of a prop for the Penny Tweedy character. Penny Tweedy was Disneyized into something she was not; the reality is she was a woman of wealth who grew up in the horse industry, not a "simple housewife" who had a special bond with Secretariat. At the end of the movie, a beautiful black and white portrait of Eddie Sweat with Secretariat was shown. Theirs was the true story; Eddie's bond with this amazing animal was of the heart. A film honoring the Secretariat/Eddie story would have been powerful and inspirational, two things that this movie was not.

Disney Pretty but Lacking SubstanceDec 07, 2010
By Alydar
"alydar"
If you want a nice colorful family friendly movie and you love horses and the way they run - this movie is for you. The film has exceptional photography and sound even though like the Titanic movie, you know the ending. But, what an ending. This horse was exceptional. The second story in "Secretariat" was the "lady horseman in a man's game ". Yes, and the "third story", family versus dreams of destiny. I was there at Belmont when Secretariat won by 31 lengths ( oops, I gave the sinking ship story away, sorry ). I will buy this movie and watch it a few times over and over and hope for great extras ( we Secretariat lovers deserve it ) BUT, I have a SUGGESTION. Watch the movie - and hopefully it will increase your thirst for more about the backstory and true facts about this amazing equine athlete- then run out and buy the 1975, William Nack book, "SECRETARIAT" ( also titled "Big Red of Meadow Stable" and/or "Secretariat:The Making of a Champion" )You will come away with much more. His "real story" true to the word and without the Disney-touch. You'll learn how he got his name ( and the almost other names ) and more about his dad, Bold Ruler and a not too shabby stablemate named Riva Ridge and the real factual " coin toss" that brought this champion to Penny & Meadow farm. I give the book 5 STARS and the movie 3 STARS - do you want a pretty picture OR the "true story" of Big Red
