      Carlos T Minha opinião: Imagine um dia você estar navegando no yputube e te aparece um filme com este titulo e como gosto de filmes de superação comecei a assistir, mas pronto para mudar se não gostasse. Porem o tempo foi passando e passando e assisti ele todo. Um filme de classe C, mas muito bem produzido, sentimos aquela dedicação e empenho. Atores desconhecidos, mas realizaram uma boa atuação. A estoria conta de um ex-mariner que se acidentou e isso custou os movimentos de seus pés e perna. Mas agora de volta a casa o seu sonho de ser um piloto profissional de motocross foi água a baixo e sendo ele uma pessoa contudo para vencer. Mas agora ele trabalha em uma oficina de motos, mas as dificuldades financeiros fazem com que ele participe de uma corridas, mas escondida de sua esposa. Até que chega o dia que ela descobre e vai embora. E ele agora entre a faca e a cruz depois de ter sofrido mais um grave acidente. Qual será a sua postura? Será que vencerá os desafios? Será que ele superará os desafios? Assim sua luta os faz desafiar os limites e sua esposa volta para aopia-lo e assim vai para a final do campeonato que o poderá levar ao profissional. Filme que Recomendo de mais. Roteiro e enredo são bons. E te leva para dentro do filme onde você torce junto a superação. Vale apena assistir? Sim com certeza. Um filme que te surpreenderá. Nota: 8 e 9 (por ser um filme C, sem atores conhecidos e sem os orçamentos milirionários). #cinema #movie #filme #filmesapaixonantes #dicasdefilme #imdb #rottentomatoes #oscar #eiga #pelicula #hollywood #adorocinema #amocinema #lovemovie #apaixonadoporcinema #netflix #disneyplay #amazonprime #hbomax #popcorn #curtocinema #cinemaepipoca Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/31/23 Full Review paul b This movie is the boy band of cinematic schlock—Identify plot devices that resonate with a specific segment of the population: War as macho shit, wounded warrior, extreme sports, relationship issues between super attractive people, and mix in the quintessential comeback-kid-teamwork storyline and bingo bango you have yourself a winning film. Not so much. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Such a great story which highlights some of the difficulties our military service members struggle with returning from a war especially with injuries (although some are not visible). Enough emotion to make you love the characters and fall in love with the story! Of course there is some predictability, but you wouldn't want the film to end any other way. Michael Roark is phenomenal in this role and I look forward to seeing more of his work!!! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review debie k This movie will be loved by cinephiles but less so by the average moviegoer. This New-England folktale has a slow, moody build with a poor payoff. They do a good job of staying true to the puritan history, language, costumes, and settings. The acting is decent from the older cast, especially the eldest daughter and father but the youngest cast (acting and script) almost takes away from the cleverness of the film. There are no real scares except for the creepiness of it all but, the ending was a huge letdown for me and ruined the whole film. There are some artistic and creative moments for this film but all-in-all I wouldn't recommend this movie to the average horror/thriller audience, more for a fill buff IMHO. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Fantastic inspirational movie, great story and great cast! Must watch! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It's actually a really well made fun film, wasn't expecting it, I was expecting some bum fuck Alabama hillybillys. But it is hell back from it's true potential by someone dabbing at 1:22;35 in the crowd. It's the biggest dad dab and i feel uncomfortable Also they should have put like highway to hell and back in black when Bennett was just lapping all the shitters in the first race And I just finished it, the ending is a bit dead, may be because I'm fried now but the acting in that interview bit was a bit sus, and the bit when he goes under the baddy was a bit bodgy. Coming back to this and they should have put some good music during the driving. Imagine it's like highway to hell when he's just overtaking all the shitters at the beginning races Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Dennis Harvey Variety Modest but enjoyable, with some exciting race footage, it should provide an inviting alternative for audiences on the lookout for inspirational family-friendly fare... Aug 31, 2019 Full Review John DeFore Hollywood Reporter Performances are generally competent, but nobody in the cast has the kind of presence needed to overcome Ranarivelo's by-the-numbers dialogue. Aug 29, 2019 Full Review Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times "Bennett's War"... proves to be less of a battle than a test of endurance. Aug 29, 2019 Full Review Linda Cook Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) 'Bennett's War' hits home with story of recovery, motocross Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Jackie K. Cooper jackiekcooper.com A nice, pleasant movie, but not one worth the price of today's tickets. Rated: 5/10 Sep 7, 2019 Full Review Micheal Compton Bowling Green Daily News It's a well-intentioned but ultimately cliché-ridden family drama that can never rise above its rather mediocre material.
