County Fair Audience Reviews

Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Snow Leopard This film tries to present an uplifting story of sympathetic characters overcoming adversity, but unfortunately it just doesn't work at all. It is brought down most of all by the plot, which is just a mess: it is riddled with gaping holes, it is heavily dependent on unlikely coincidences, and it calls for the characters repeatedly to make irrational and improbable decisions. The rest of the production is far too undistinguished to make up for it.The hero is John, a jockey who was framed for drugging his horse at a county fair. He leaves in disgrace with a friend, and in the course of their travels they meet a brother and sister who have an amazingly fast horse, which their grumpy father insists be used only for farm work. The setup has a lot of flaws in it, and from there on in, things develop in even more far-fetched fashion. The weak writing, acting, and directing aren't nearly good enough here to make the plot work."County Fair" seems to be a well-meaning effort, but it ends up being just a bad film that really has nothing to recommend to it.
