Pros: Great movie about a great man, you will really enjoy Cons: It is a tear jerker, with some vulgar language

going to send it back.. when I saw that the...

Pros: True story - Shows both the good and bad choices the man made Cons: The clothing did not seem to blend with the ago of the movie
This is a movie which casted the main character to Luke Perry while he was still a HUGE hit with 90210. It is good to see movies taking a chance on a person who seems to be connected to a specific character. The protrail through the years showed how a...

Pros: Luke Perry Cons: Slow start
I'm not much of a cowboy, or like seeing things about cowboys, but my dad does, and when he got 8 Seconds, I cringed at the thought of seeing two more hours of bull riding. But it's much more than bull riding. It's the story of every man, and how...

Pros: good stoy-line, plenty of rodeo action, great music, wonderful actors (Luke Perry looks JUST like Lane Frost) Cons: sad ending, rough langiage
8 Seconds has truly captured the dangerous ways of rodeo life. Being born and raised in Texas, and being around my best friends father who was once a professional bull-rider, I love the ways of the rodeo, and was thrilled to see that there was a movie...

8 Seconds is a wonderful movie that tells the story of Lane Frost, the legendary bull rider who changed the way the rodeo is today. I saw this movie now only because it was about the rodeo, but because it was about one of the greatest hero's of my...

Pros: Accurate and interesting. Cons: Not long enough
As far as I am concerned, this is the only movie that Luke Perry has ever really acted in. His portrayal of Lane Frost in this great country classic is riveting. 8 Seconds gives a pretty accurate account of the life and times of Lane Frost and his...
