Movie Reviews of Iron Will
Movie Review: An engrossing family tale of courage and determination!
Summary: 5 Stars
"Once in a generation an athlete pits himself against such overwhelming odds, that even the most jaded spectator finds himself cheering breathlessly"...Iron Will is a moving true-life story about the determination and valor of one heroic young American who sets out to win a 500-mile dogsled race across the U.S. and Canada. Up against seemingly impossible odds, "Iron Will" Stoneman strives on to achieve his dream: to save his parents beloved farm and go to college; and somewhere along the way, the seventeen-year old boy becomes a man.
Although this movie is a bit formulaic and anyone can guess the Disney ending, that doesn't make it any less thrilling to watch; when I first saw this film in the theater, the whole room was cheering him on at the end! Definately worth your time to check out this great family-friendly film!
Movie Review: Great Family Day film
Summary: 5 Stars
This is not your average Disney film, except that the quality is top-rate, the acting is top rate, and the story line is decent. But it is not a Mikey Mouse Club tpye story.
It is based on a true life story. Mackenzie Austin is a great actor in this. Not sure why he never did anything this good again.
Ok, the story can be sappy, and it has been done before (and since). But for all the sled-dog type movies this is the best (even recent ones).
As for a dog movie, this is ok, there are some better dog movies, but this ranks up there with Benji.
Movie Review: the will power
Summary: 5 Stars
the first time i saw this film was in the summer of 1993 or 94,i think.? it's been more than fifteen years now and when i searched for this in amazon, i knew i just had to buy it. my 2 children ages 9 and 6 love the dogs and i'm pretty sure as they grow, they'll like the story too. i rate this movie 5 stars because i like to think that everyone has its own challenges in life and when you're just odds with everything but still you have that feeling that no matter what, you know that you can and if it feels right, then you are victorious.Movie Review: a modern Disney live action classic
Summary: 5 Stars
There have been several Disney movies in the past decades of the "new" era of the studio which shine with the spirit and heart of traditional Disney and with a more contemporary ferver of modern day filmaking. Iron Will has a lot to offer for traditional Disney enthusiasts as well as those who just love a darn good movie!!! If you loved 'The Journey of Natty Gann' and 'White Fang' you wont be dissapointed! Parents do your preteens a favour, for that matter do your teens a favor! What the hec , do YOURSELF a favour!!!Movie Review: Iron will a mushers story
Summary: 5 Stars
Iron will is great, sled dog enthusiests and kids alike will enjoy the tale of a boy who has a dull hope and a bright dream to save the family buisness, farm and his collage education.A story of life at its cruelist of the hardships a musher faces in some of the world cruelist territory. An oldie but a goodie and as a sled dog freak one of my favourites even got a couple of good shots of the malamutes...which sadly are the bad guys dogs...
