I don't think there was a single scene of Malkovich's character actually training a horse.
And the dialogue is really clunky. They should give Diane Lane an honorary Oscar just for all the as God is my witness I'll never be hungry again speeches she had to deliver.
The best part was the two people sitting behind us.
Diane Lane: "Daddy, this is Big Red."
Lady Behind Us: "I THOUGHT HIS NAME WAS SECRETARIAT."

Disney has cut costs for years. Even their G rated flicks look cheap these days.
