      The Mustangs: America's Wild Horses

      Released Oct 15, 2021 1h 23m Documentary List
      100% Tomatometer 7 Reviews "The Mustangs: America's Wild Horses" is a feature documentary that takes audiences on an odyssey throughout America to places few people have seen or know about. There are more than 80,000 wild horses on our public lands and 50,000 in government corrals. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist David Philipps says, "The wild horse is so ingrained in the American imagination that even for those who have never seen one know what it stands for: fierce independence, unbridled freedom, the bedrock ideals of the nation. From car ads to high school mascots, the wild horse -- popularly known as the mustang -- is the enduring icon of America. But in modern times it has become entangled in controversy and bureaucracy, and now its future is in question." The film features songs by Bruce Springsteen, Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson and an original song written by Diane Warren and performed by Blanco Brown. "America's wild horses are fighting their last stand," said Executive Producer Robert Redford. The Mustangs....the fight for freedom has begun! Read More Read Less

      Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times A lovely, essential portrait that's also a little dull. It sometimes feels more like a promotional film than penetrating documentary. Oct 15, 2021 Full Review Owen Gleiberman Variety A friendly, lyrical, and stirring documentary... Oct 14, 2021 Full Review Jeanne Kaplan Kaplan vs. Kaplan An engrossing documentary introduces the viewer to these free souls whose existence is in peril. Dec 4, 2021 Full Review David Kaplan Kaplan vs. Kaplan The most moving part of the doc involves the influence these animals have on military veterans suffering from PTSD. Dec 4, 2021 Full Review Elias Savada Film International A fine, upstanding look at the breed of feral steeds that have been an iconic symbol for the American West for centuries and, yes, it has a slow-build message. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 26, 2021 Full Review Jordan Elizabeth Common Sense Media The film's production quality is rich with dazzling visuals of desert landscapes and mustangs galloping across the plains, making The Mustangs: America's Wild Horses a delight to watch.
