Seabiscuit (DVD, 2003)

I'm a fan of anything horses, and an avid fan of horse racing. I loved this movie, and the book it is based on is one of the best I've ever red. I learned so much about California and Mexico in the early 1900's. It has so much in heart and life lessons that it is truly your loss if you miss it.

True story about a horse that gets a 2nd chance to race and a jockey who not only has faith in this horse but gains faith in himself too. A well-written movie taking place in the 30's with actual photos of how life was back then. Movie is filled with encouragement, faith, hope, and you leave it appreciating the simple life we have today. Very enlightening story.

excellent movie for the whole family. Shows how animals can have a positive effect on human life. Bought this movie because its worth watching over and over

This Movie is an awesome story of man and animal, the trials and tribulations of an individual his friend, partner, and accomplis. I give it 2 thumbs up!
A must Buy, rent, or see!

Great to do business with, Got the item in good time. I will do business with them again. I could not find this item any were but here. I was very happy to get this item. It was a C D that I had lost and it was my favorite movie.

I bought this product 3 days ago and the seller got it too me in 3 days!
I liked that it comes in Widescreen and Fullscreen option! Great condition, no scratches on the DVD. Everything is great about this purchase.

Seabiscuit is a heartwarming movie,and I personally think Toby Mcguire is sooo
handsome. What a fiesty horse and beautiful storie about the hardships that souls can go through to become diamonds when they succeed. Truly a great price for this movie.The DVD/Case are both well taken care of.

When this movie first came out, I was reluctant to see it. A movie about a stupid horserace... who cares? I didn't see it till almost two years after it came out and boy was I sorry I had waited! I won't ruin anything with details... I'll just say that whatever preconceived ideas, or reservations you might have regarding seeing this movie - get rid of them! This is WELL WORTH THE TIME to watch it. That first rather reluctant viewing... well, by the end of the movie I was nearly coming out of my seat cheering on that "stupid horserace"!! :) I'd give it a five star rating without hesitating and it is now on my list of all time favs!!

My wife enjoyed this dvd, the only complaint that I have is that it stopped several times during the movie, this was not a new dvd but the seller should have mentioned that it does pause at scenes which he failed to describe

We bought this CD because we saw a review of the movie and thought we would enjoy it. We loved the idea of the "underdog" horse becoming a winner and thought it was a great story. The only thing we disliked was some of the language, which seemed totally unnecessary to make it a really terrific movie.

Perfect movie for any horse-lover! I saw the movie when it first came out and purchased it to watch with my fiance and step-daughter. It is a great family movie, with something for everyone to enjoy. We will watch it over and over again.

Great Movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We loved the movie, and the movie was in great condition. The movie was shipped to us quickly, so it was quick shipping. Thank you for a wonderful movie.

I saw this movie when it was in the theatres. I have only one comment: This is the ONLY movie that I've ever seen where people in the theatre stood up from their seats and cheered. I had never seen this happen before and I haven't seen it happen since. The characters in this movie are real, flaws and all. The times were hard and people dealt with it because they had no choice. The time period began in the depression and moves forward. It's about a horse, but there's so much more to this movie.

I love this movie, it is about a great race horse, I'd recommend anyone to watch this movie. They would enjoy it.

Seabiscuit was a good film and an excellent book. In my limited experience I've noticed people who read to experience, know and be entertained tend to expect a much higher level of nuance, information and pleasure out of a book than they do a film. It stands to reason, a book is considerably more work. People who watch films to experience, know and be entertained tend to more of the wow, splat and bam. Saying this does not preclued enjoyment of both media. The differences in the film and book can best be explained by the time devoted by the reader and viewer to each.

The Seabiscuit story is not as simple as it may sound watching a trailer or reading a book jacket. The film did not have enough time to include all the details that make this little-big-horse story so extrordinary, whereas, the book did. Both were well done but, the better story was told by the book. So much has to be left out to fit the short time the movie plays. It must have been agonizing for the screenwriters and director to decide what will show. Saying this, it still was a very good film.

Reading the book first, as I did, gives one that common feeling that no film will match the book. The film condensation of history was brilliant if, you paid attention to all the hints and suggestions of subtlety put into it. Without reading the book much would be missed. With my considerable insensitivity, the film would not be as powerful seeing it before reading the book. Each can stand on its own as seperate artistic efforts. Obviously, you will conclude both should be experienced, book first. This is my recommendation.

I love love love this movie. The DVD plays a good, and the case is in good condition.

Thanks very much.

A wonderful movie for the entire family. Had seen it previously, but wanted my own copy and got it for a terrific price on Ebay! It is fast paced and you do not want to miss a minute of the story line. It is a keeper!

Seabiscuit is one of the movies that should be required viewing for any student learning about the Great Depression. Much of the story line occurs during the Depression, and there are accurate historical vignettes throughout the movie that gives clues to the overall national psyche that became enamoured with the little race horse with a big heart. Racing scenes, although staged, were still exciting to watch, as well deep character development for all of the lead roles. ~~~ Overall: definitely a DVD to own. It's worth watching once or more times per year.

Been looking for this DVD couldn't find it in the stores I have it on VHS but want to convert all my movies to DVD.

Its a good family movie bought for my mother-in-law who is not able to get out on her own anymore. She loves movies and especially anything involving horses. This was ideal.
