Secretariat opens this Friday and my good buddy George 'El Guapo' Roush from Latino Review and I headed off to the Burbank Equestrian Center to review the film. The film is the story of the horse who won the Triple Crown in 1973 and his owner Penny Chenery (Diane Lane) who believed in him, despite the odds against them.

First of all, you have to love an animal film where no animals die. Disney likes to kill off animals left and right. I know they're animated animals, but I still get upset. Oh stop laughing. You know you wept like a baby when they killed Bambi's mother.

Check out the review below. I'm pretty convinced that the horse we filmed in front of was either auditioning for something or fell in love with George. I've never seen anyone groped that way by an animal. You can follow George on Twitter at @elguapo1.
