In modern-day Wyoming, teenager Katy McLaughlin dreams of working on and, one day, taking over her father's ranch. She tames a mustang and names her Flicka, then finds that she and her new equine companion are more alike than she imagined. After her father sells Flicka, Katy schemes to win back the horse by entering a dangerous race.

Critics Consensus

The rebellious protagonist will rally girls and children, but adults may find Flicka saddled with thin characters, over-the-top dialogue, and a plot that wanders into the countryside and never comes back.

1/5

Ultimately, the entire endeavor seems like an effort to cash in on a predictably bankable tale.

Would I pay to see it? No, probably not, but then I'm not a 12-year-old girl or the parent of a young child.

It's got lovely vistas, and earnest performances, and Allison Lohman... is very believable.

This movie is full of hot, grimy, lonesome cowpokes, and nobody pokes anyone. LAME!
