With a punchy Neal McDonough on the saddle, The Last Rodeo is a wholesome ride for the entire herd.

“The Last Rodeo” may not be bodacious, but it’s a satisfying ride.

Rated: 3/4

This thoroughly predictable but undeniably engaging faith-based drama is an inoffensively old-fashioned entertainment that, with only minor tweaking, could pass for a Walt Disney Studios release of yore.

If the characters aren't three-dimensional and the plot is so predictable it creaks into motion by the five-minute mark. you haven't done the work necessary to pull in your audience. You've got to give us something to hang our cowboy hats on.

The film may look the part of a rugged, nostalgic Western, but the narrative scaffolding is too jumbled and self-indulgent to deliver on its emotional promise.

Rated: 2/5

Battle Royale With Cheese

The Last Rodeo is a basic story that has good intentions but ultimately fails in almost every aspect. Bad direction and a poor script led to less than stellar performances from everyone involved.

It is a movie that lacks the faith to do more than what is asked for.
