For them, such a short time can seem like an eternity. The same is true of the beginning of this true story, a country tale of Lane Frost, a real-life, crowd-pleasing bullrider who rose to rodeo fame in the late '80s. The characters seem so irrepressibly good, so unreal, that the film comes out of the chute without a buck or much of a purpose. But Frost's story, and that of his relationship with his wife, Kellie (Cynthia Geary), eventually gains momentum. Luke Perry is an underrated actor, and he balances an "aw-shucks-ness" with an internal spark that makes that salt-of-the-earth stuff not so salty. When the film is finally over and the end credits show home movies and stills of the real-life Frost, you'll wish the ride was just a little longer. --Keith Simanton Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Biopic Without Much Biography, But Exciting EntertainmentAfter being directed by Amazon's recommendation to "8 Seconds," and reading the reviews, I thought that this would be an enjoyable film and purchased it. I am not a big rodeo fan, but I do enjoy them once in a while; and I have been friends with several bull riders.

Indeed, after watching the film, I ... Read More Rating:  - Love the Rodeo!If you've never been to a real, live rodeo, you may not appreciate it but the storyline is cute and the action realistic. Rating: - Amazing stuff..........I love this movie! "8 Seconds" is a classic! Luke Perry puts on his best performance ever as Lane Frost! Stephen Baldwin nails his role too, as legendary bull rider Tuff Hedeman! One of my favorites, not just for cowboys!! Highly recommended if you havent seen this film!!! Rating: - Great movie=one you won't want to miss!This movie is great. Some of the details are inaccurate to the real life story of Lane Frost. I don't know how many times I've seen this movie-probably more than 10. Rating: - Lane Frost Rides Again....Luke Perry is excellent in this Bio-Pic of Rodeo great, Lane Frost. This is a great film. Stephen Baldwin is a laugh riot as Bull Riding Champion, "Tuff" Heddamen. This is a really well put together film. I really liked it. Nobody can deliver a "feel good" movie like John G. Avildsen (Karate Kid, Rocky)....and this is no exception. You really get a sense of who Lane Frost was, and what the "Rodeo Life" is really like. It will make you laugh, it will make you mad, and it will make you cry. This is ... Read More |
