Cowgirls n' Angels (2012)

Too much of everything

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

I loved this movie the first Cowgirls N' Angels it was a great movie. Everything I've seen Bailee Madison in so far I have liked like this movie & the Christmas movies I've seen her in. As I myself grew up as a foster child I like how Ida found her natural talent & a whole different new group of good family & friends. I am an animal lover my self I grew up on a farm in Northern Virginia before my great uncle died when I was 11 which is when I started going through the system of foster care & group homes so we had lots of animals so I like any movies that has lots of animals. This is a great movie.

On my DVD copy of "Cowgirls an' Angels" there's a sticker that reads: "family approved by Dove". That's all you really need to know.Ida is a young girl who desperately wants to find her daddy. She is taken in by the Sweethearts, a group of travelling rodeo cowgirls who perform stunts while on horseback. Ida travels and performs with them and learns valuable lessons about life along the way. Aww.The most important aspect on such a premise working or not is a likable main character. In this respect, Bailee Madison was perfectly cast, it's like the role was written for her (it probably was). She gives a layered and interesting performance, and is a joy to watch. I enjoyed the film because of Madison, but also because I liked seeing some of the inner workings of the southern rodeo circuit. People go to the movies for many reasons, and one of them is to spend time in good company. I felt in good company here, I liked the characters and their respective story lines. At times the movie feels too "wholesome", but it's heart is always in the right place. I've never been to the south, but this film makes me want to pack my bags and go. Strange how movies can make you feel nostalgia for places you've never seen, and events you were never there for.

I have waited forever to see this movie. Seen a preview and knew it was something I wanted to see. Unfortunately I don't believe it ever made it into our local theater so as soon as it was on DVD I rented it and after watching it and loving it I will be going out to buy it not only for my house but for my moms as well. It is great family entertainment. Very real emotions and I cried and laughed and loved it. The cast is the best around they did a stand up job. I wouldn't have changed a thing about it. You don't have to be a horse lover to love this, but I am and that was just a perk. I hope to see this cast together in the future, hopefully more movies like this will be made.

I was lucky enough to attend a screening with my 2 daughters and wife in Arkansas. I can tell you from a dad's perspective this movie is a winner in all aspects. It had my wife in tears, my kids mesmerized, and me impressed. I normally walk in with very little expectations from a children's film, but this movie delivered. There is an amazing heart breaking scene between Ida and her mom that I still can't forget. There are several different story lines playing out throughout the movie so there is something for everybody. It also has good lessons for kids, Ida sort of becomes a strong young women at the end, while still remaining a kid.
