Soldier,injured in Afghanistan regains his motorcycle mojo and saves his Dad's farm.
This movie definitely falls into the casual watching territory. It has all the familiar tropes of triumph over adversity but it never really explores anything to any great length. It has a 70's made for TV vibe about it which i found quite endearing .The motocross racing scenes never really get the adrenaline going which is a shame because it's certainly a visually exciting sport. Strapping a go pro to a rider's chest only goes so far. The editing has to be snappy and revealing of the different positions of the riders. The characters in this all had the possibility of being really interesting but they needed to be a little more complete. Underneath all this there's really a rather good movie trying to get out. Put it in the Sunday afternoon watching bracket.
