Top CriticIt offers both eye-opening rodeo footage and surprisingly interesting tangents about the bulls (some of which are worth up to $150,000) and the fleet-footed bull fighters (formerly known as rodeo clowns).

Top CriticIf even one [rider] were more conspicuously flawed, the film might be more compelling.
