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.

This was a sweet movie. Fast paced and never boring. Best scene had to be when everyone was line dancing.Bailee Madison is a capable lead as Ida the cute little girl with the dream of finding her father through starring in the rodeo. I just wished we would've had more heart to heart moments with the mother.I was really interested in the side story and would've loved to see more of it though. Dora Madison Burge was just as endearing here as Kansas as she was in Friday night Lights as Becky. Jackson Rathbone lit up the screen the few times he was on as Justin.Over all its a cute little family movie for a boring afternoon.

Cowgirls 'N Angels is wonderful because each person walks out loving it but for perhaps different reasons. The script creates a story and characters and that viewers will identify with and care about. The actors are fantastic. I had tears running down my face several times both of joy and of shared frustration with Ida (Bailey Madison) and her mother (Alicia Witt). The soundtrack is beautiful. There are not many movies out that appeal to all generations and both genders. I hope the movie gets wider distribution so more audiences can enjoy a well written, heartfelt, story driven movie. Timothy Armstrong succeeded in writing and directing a movie that can inspire real life conversations when you walk out of the theater.

Delivers on the promise of being a family movie! After feeling duped by Hollywood for what seems like forever, this really did appeal to and was enjoyed by my whole family. Appreciated relationship between older and younger generations - scenes with James Cromwell and Bailee Madison are truly fantastic. Can't recall any recent films that convey this type of relationship in such an endearing way. Would like to see more films with them as co-stars, I think this film discovered a perfect match. Well rounded cast, and thought Alicia Witt's performance as the mom was sincere and liked that her character was not candy coated as so many moms are usually portrayed. Saw the film with my daughters and their cousin who is a middle-school boy. Wasn't sure what he would think, as it seemed like it may be geared toward girls, but he had tears in his eyes! No big explosions or special effects to get in the way, just a wholehearted, enjoyable, family film. Looking forward to seeing it again.
