Cape Times Kirk Honeycutt This movie has legs | 15 | |
Box Office Pete Hammond It may not break any new ground in the well-worn, horse racing movie genre, but this thrilling and inspiring entertainment about the legendary, 1973 Triple Crown winning horse should have audiences standing up and cheering. | 15 | |
Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert Like The Social Network, another contender for year-end awards, it has supreme confidence in its story and faith that we will find it fascinating. This is one of the year's best films. | 20 | |
eye Weekly Adam Nayman A forcibly inspiring fable about a steel-willed conservative babe of means who juggles family, career and celebrity, Secretariat deserves recognition as the first Sarah Palin movie | 1 | |
Rolling Stone Peter Travers If it's hip to be square, then this racehorse movie is the ultimate in cornball cool. | 13 | |
ScreenIt C. Fuchs Okay, but nothing more, Secretariat is like a coin toss that ends up stuck on its side -- it neither wins nor loses, but is just sort of there, on the verge of falling one way or another. | 10 | |
