Michele Clark I like this moving because it's based on a true story. Also if you watch any interviews with the cast, you learn that they actually spent time with the real people to learn the story before they played the roles so that they had all the facts so that it was "real" instead of acting. The storyline was great and you could tell the actors really had a true love for horses. I totally recommend it. 5 stars!!

dsunstrum I was able to see 50 to 1 at an awesome theater in California. This movie is heart warming and a feel good movie! The cast was perfectly picked. I must say that I am a fan of Christian Kane and was really looking forward to seeing this movie. It was great to hear one of his songs in the movie as well. Christian Kane is extremely talented. Calvin Borels story of what happened with him and Mind that Bird, makes you have hope again that anything can happen if you give your all. I would recommend this film to anyone who likes true stories brought to film. Mind that Bird is such a beautiful horse. Watch the movie, you won't be disappointed!

danielshumway I'm the kind of movie fan that appreciates art and genius in film. This is not art. But, for its genre, it is a well-made wonderful, heart- warming, true story. I found out afterward, the film is quite faithful to the true story, which I appreciate. I enjoyed all the acting performances, I felt the actors' emotions, so I think they really put a lot of soul into it. I didn't know the outcome or the story at all so it made it really fun for me. I look forward to more movies with these actors and by the writer and director. If you like horse racing, you'll really enjoy it. It has a neat surprise (this is not a spoiler) in that one of the actors was actually involved in the true story. I read some tough reviews from professional critics. I really don't see what they were so critical of. I highly recommend it.

jhembrook529 I rented 50 to 1 from Redbox because I wanted to see it first before I bought it to be sure I'd like it. Well, I loved it! I loved the acting by all in the film especially Skeet Ulrich and Christian Kane! I fell in love with Mine that Bird from the beginning of watching him and seeing the actual jockey, Calvin Borel, ride at the end of the movie was amazing! He knew exactly how to ride the horse to save his energy for the end to win the race. Even knowing how it ended didn't take away from the excitement of seeing it happen. The movie was very well done and I intend to buy it as soon as I am able. My daughter is 9 and a horse lover and I think she would very much enjoy watching this movie as well!
