Spanning generations and two intertwining love stories, The Longest Ride explores the challenges and infinite rewards of enduring love.

“The film never gains traction on the shifting sands of its premise and fails to achieve even the less-than-lofty pinnacle of sudsy melodrama.” James Berardinelli -ReelViews

“A chance to check out up-and-coming actors in cloyingly calculated performances” Todd McCarthy  -The Hollywood Reporter
