Critic Reviews for Heart like a Wheel
All Critics (8) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (8) | Rotten (0) | DVD (1)
Heart is an often enthralling film of determination, heartbreak and triumph.

This charming movie further expanded the roles allotted to women, chronicling the career of Muldowney (splendidly played by Bonnie Badelia), the only race driver (male or female) to have won three times the National Hot Rod Association World Championship
A solid entry in the overcoming-great-odds-to-become-a-champion biopic.
... and there STILL ain't many girls in NASCAR.
A spunky, well-crafted movie about the first woman to succeed in big-time drag racing
Audience Reviews for Heart like a Wheel
Fantastic!

Super Reviewer
bonnie bedelia is always good but not usually given parts worthy of her talent, this one is however and she delivers an outstanding performance.
