Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 07/06/2006
Both in terms of the activities and characters depicted, Rank doesn't truly manage to sustain interest for the course of its feature-length running time. Go to Full Review Jack Mathews New York Daily News 06/30/2006
2/4
That final night of competition is exciting stuff, capped by a heroic victory ride, but this is otherwise a plodding feature. Go to Full Review Kyle Smith New York Post 06/28/2006
3/4
It offers both eye-opening rodeo footage and surprisingly interesting tangents about the bulls (some of which are worth up to $150,000) and the fleet-footed bull fighters (formerly known as rodeo clowns). Go to Full Review Maitland McDonagh TV Guide 06/28/2006
2.5/4
If even one [rider] were more conspicuously flawed, the film might be more compelling. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

06/16/2009 Not the best doc but fun to watch. See more 02/17/2009 I am no fan of bull riding, nor do I have any interest in cowboys. But I know a good documentary when I see one. This is a superb look into the people, the life, the industry that is professional bull riding. Be prepared to wince a few times. See more 03/24/2008 One of the most interesting and well made documentaries I have ever seen. See more 03/20/2008 pretty good....nice documentary!!! See more 01/14/2008 I finally got around to watching this tonight for the first time. An interesting watch. The filmmakers give a very good account of the world of bull riding. See more 11/13/2007 A gripping and intimate view at the sport as well as a completely normal but at the same time very strange portrait of America See more Read all reviews
