Getting Back in the Gamenew
This dewy story of a girl and her horse has its snout stuck on Page One of the family-flick playbook: Well-meaning dad does something to disappoint his sensitive kid; kid bolts from the room in tears; they reconcile a few scenes later; repeat as necessary.

Seabiscuit Juniornew
This horsey heartwarmer does something surprising in spite of its underdog sports-movie formula and shameless emotional manipulation: It manages to be an enjoyable movie about and for girls.

Sugarcoated Tale
This DreamWorks production about a little girl and a special horse is slow-moving and treacly, and--unless you actually buy that bit of marketing flimflam about being "inspired by a true story"--it yields no surprises.
