While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Buck Brannaman is your go-to guy for horse training. He is one of very few people who can help train your horse with absolute respect for it. If you want to see how a single man can train horses of all kinds and how he became the horse whisperer, then this is the movie for you.Throughout this documentary, you get a glimpse of Buck's life and how he became the horse whisperer. His past does not define him because he completely changed his life around. This man goes across country to help so many people with any horse problem. He teaches them to respect the horse like you would respect another human. "A horse is a mirror to the owner." All of his teachings really pay off, and it only take a few days at the most before he is on the road to another teaching.Every person this man comes across all have mixed feelings about how he is able to train so many horses. After spending time and watching him do his work, they all come to love him. Every person sees how much respect he has for these horses and change their whole perspective on him and on these horses.

This documentary tells the story of Buck Brannaman a cowboy who's understanding of horses seems to be unmatched. Buck tours the country for months of the year providing seminars for horse owners everywhere. This documentary follows him to many of his different seminars where they capture Buck doing what he does best. What makes this film unique, and worth watching is the unique way Buck treats the horses he works with. Along with that comes the ability for these horses to seem a lot smarter than most horses, and trained to another level than the average horse. The training seen in the opening minutes of the film leaves a certain wow factor on the viewer. These awesome events are the prologue to the inspiring story to come. As the film progresses it begins to describe Buck's childhood, which was a very troubled one and formed him into the man he is today. Buck's childhood is directly related to the work he does today. It was the events of his past that helped him form some of the techniques he uses in his demonstrations. Buck often describes horses like "children" he uses this analogy to describe the way they must be raised. Buck's respect for these animals is touching to say the least. This film combines Buck's love, with life lessons for all to learn. The lessons apply to more than just horses, this film teaches you how to live your life in such a way that you positively affect everyone you meet. Every interview in the film shares the same message about how wonderful Buck is, and through watching this film you too can share this awesome opinion. The director does a wonderful job at capturing the magic that is Buck Brennaman, and I would recommend this film to anyone and everyone.

The movie Buck is a documentary made by Cindy Meehl. The movie talks about the life and story of the man, Buck Brennaman, with the woes and hardships that he has had to face. When you first watch this movie, you don't really know what you're getting into. You may be asking the words "why am I watching this?". The summary on netflix says its a documentary that talks about a man who the "horse whisperer" was named after. That's weird. If that didn't raise some red flags, I doubt the rest of this review will be helpful to you. You probably don't even like horses that much.But you got started. You're watching this 50 year old man, saddle up, and talk about horses. There are so many questions running through your mind. However, you watch it through, and in the end you feel some sort of way. Something you haven't felt in a while, and you don't know how you feel about it. I'm here to explain it to you. Here's how it goes.The plot is talking about his life (duh. its a documentary. (Just listen...)). It is a saddening childhood, that certainly left me feeling as if I was heartbroken. Abusive relationship, dead guardian angel. The sadness felt in the movie was astonishing; It was not something you would expect from a documentary about horses. However, there is an underlying theme throughout the story, and the real protagonist was there all along. The protagonist is the horse. What is a horse, and what are they considered? Are they lowlier than us? Are they better? Are they meant to be kept like a dog is? The answer is confusing.Brannanman has many beliefs of horses. He believes that they are the ones that are extensions of yourself; that they are supposed to be loved like a family member, and that "the horse is a mirror of your soul", as if they reflect themselves through you. He goes on to state that a horse is supposed to be an extension of your body and you should be able to control it like anything else in your body. However, in the end, Buck breaks horses in for a living. He makes sure that a horse knows that they are the pets. Colts (young horses) are exactly like children. They are the ones that have to be broken in, and showed that they are not superior to the human in anyway. The 3 year old horse in the movie is the perfect example of this. The horse was oxygen deprived at birth. It was in need of dire help at birth due to the circumstances at its birth, but it wasn't given it. It was supposed to be a link and mirror of the owner, but it wasn't. In the end, it was just put down like the rest of the lowly animals that don't behave. Buck's ideology is interesting. He says that a horse is supposed to be like a human, but a human would never be put down just because it didn't listen.Buck's ideology is interesting. It is not concrete, but it is interesting. He tries to practice as he teaches, but he contradicts himself along the way. This documentary was definitely interesting, and I would recommend it to most, just due to the amazing struggles that Buck had to face, and to see someone come from the bottom of despair like that is amazing. However, if you wanted to get into the theological points of view of the story, I would disagree with this being a good watch.

An intriguing and fascinating documentary about the amazing and strong willed horse trainer named Buck..At a very young and tender age, Buck began to perform rope tricks along with his older brother and soon became a local star. People lined up to see Buck and his older brother perform. Although the boys seemed to have a wonderful life, their life behind the scenes was terrifying. Their father treated them very harshly and made living with him a horror. Buck's mother hindered his aggressive behavior but after she died the father unleashed his full wrath on the kids causing Buck to leave his home and begin his professional career with horses."To be great you must be sensitive". Buck advocates a very benevolent approach to horses. One of Buck's strong beliefs is that the way you treat horses resembles the way you treat other human beings and any inner conflict problems one has with his or herself. This documentary teaches life lessons and general respect for animals rather than simply forcing a horse to do as one wishes. If a horses is broken in using harsh methods, the horse is going to be very aggressive in response and extremely unhappy. This movie provides a different yet effective method of approaching horses. The comments of other horse owners further strengthen Buck's reputation by advocating his methods and stating how efficient and productive they are. As an individual who hasn't been around horses, i can't compare or even being to comprehend how strong and skilled Buck truly is. Even so, this movie gave me a taste of how skilled and powerful Buck is. This documentary is not the most exciting but as a viewer who knew nothing about horses, I felt this documentary was definitely intriguing,informative and interesting to watch.
