My daughter is totally horse crazy and watches every horse movie she can find. This one had better writing and acting than a lot of the others, but it had its issues. The music was seriously irritating. The main character started out likable, but then she got rid of her glasses and started wearing makeup, which suddenly made her beautiful. It was rather irritating that she wasn't considered beautiful before that. Being beautiful also turned her into a mean girl. But at least the acting wasn't completely awful.
