	Hidalgo by Fay Robinson, 1847
		Hidalgo was a man of books; a mighty revolution had taken place on the American continent, of which he could not be ignorant, and the events of later date in Europe, officially promulgated had awakened a deep feeling in the whole people, to which he was no stranger.
		The whole population of the town declared in favor of Hidalgo, and the fate of the garrison was sealed; though Riañon still persisted in his defence, which he prolonged by means of shells formed by filling with powder the iron flasks in which the quicksilver was contained, which were thrown by hand among the besiegers.
		When Hidalgo reached Valladolid he was at the head of fifty thousand men, and in addition to the numbers who joined him there, he was reinforced by the militia of the province and the dragoons of Michoacan, both of which were well equipped and in good discipline.

	Hidalgo Movie Review at Hollywood Video
		Hidalgo has all the ingredients for a ripping good yarn in the spirit of the classic adventure films of Hollywood's Golden Age: a stalwart hero, a fair damsel in distress, sneering villains, hairbreadth escapes, and swashbuckling action scenes.
		Although Hidalgo is frequently exciting and has been handsomely produced on a grand scale, you can't help but wonder what either Spielberg or Cameron could have done with this material, which seems tailor-made for their skills as escapist filmmakers nonpareil.
		Occasionally, Hidalgo springs to vivid life, especially in a sharply staged and edited rescue mission Hopkins leads on the desert city enclave of the evil Katib (Silas Carson).

		Hidalgo is pretty derivative, incorporating various standard, familiar plot elements into one bigger story and updating the special effects.
		In reality, there was a Hopkins and he did have a horse named Hidalgo, but he also loved to embellish the truth, sometimes to the point where it was all a bunch of lies.

	Hidalgo (2004): Reviews
		Hidalgo can still be a wonder to behold, especially in its dynamic racing sequences, but the movie bogs down in its midsection with a needless kidnapping subplot that ultimately becomes quite tedious.
		The lost opportunity of Hidalgo isn't that it fails to live up to its potential for romantic adventure, but that it fails to dig into the romance between man and horse that's at the heart of the story.
		The much too long, primitively plotted family action adventure Hidalgo, directed by Joe Johnston, has a handful of well-handled sequences but, given the young audience the film is intended for, the picture may be like having to finish an entire pot of broccoli to get a couple of jelly beans for dessert.

	HIDALGO
		Some of this historical context actually feels a bit force-fed and contrived, as if the filmmakers were trying to sprinkle truths on half-truths to bring validity to their story.
		Yet, despite this, HIDALGO works on a level of being a light-hearted, fun, and nostalgic period action picture that seems like a throwback to a kinder and more innocent type of film that Gary Cooper or Errol Flynn would have make.
		HIDALGO is an overall fun ride, and its very lack of historical credibility should not undermine that it’s a genuinely harmless, innocuous, and silly time at the movies.

		Hidalgo is based on a true American legend about a horse and his rider in the old west.
		I guess the only thing that is really kinda lame about the movie Hidalgo is the way everyone is so rah-rah America at the end of the flick.

	Frank's Reel Movie Reviews - Movie Review - Hidalgo
		Hidalgo brings to life the story of Frank T. Hopkins, a pony express rider who claims, among other things, to have won nearly every long distance horseback race that existed at the time.
		While a little research shows that the "true" portion of its claim to be based on a true story is anything but, Hidalgo's real problems stem from factors far more significant than whether or not Hopkins actually lived up to all of his claims.
		Hidalgo is a sprawling, wide-screen, western epic that's not only overly ambitious but also suffers from a touch of multiple personality disorder.

	Filmtracks: Hidalgo (James Newton Howard)
		Hidalgo: (James Newton Howard) With a winter and early spring season of 2004 dominated at every moment by the controversial The Passion of the Christ, the horse-racing adventure film Hidalgo is another attempt by Hollywood to unseat the religious film from its immense popularity.
		While the film's advertising hails Hidalgo as being based on a true story, there is debate and speculation about how truthful the memoirs of rider Frank T. Hopkins really were, and many critics have agreed that the film is a bit preposterous and, predictably, a tad racist.
		Where Hidalgo exceeds Peter Pan, though, is in the few moments of ethnic magic to be heard throughout the entire score, and along with the multiple broad themes for grand vistas, Hidalgo will likely please the casual Howard collector.

		Outcasts from their own land, Frank and Hidalgo both have something to prove when Hopkins became the first American invited to enter the Ocean of Fire, a grueling 3,000-mile survival race across punishing terrain of the Arabian Desert.
		When Viggo puts that gun to Hidalgo’s head, ready to kill the damn dying thing, it brought back many a memory of me standing beside the white line of the Interstate, ready to blow holes into my car’s leaky radiator.

	Review: Hidalgo
		Disney's Hidalgo, about a late 19th century long distance horse race across the Arabian Desert, is a sporadically entertaining adventure movie that is hampered by poor pacing, a badly focused screenplay, and cheesy special effects.
		Hidalgo's competition is comprised of 100 desert-bred horses, most of which appear far better conditioned than the American animal to win under such adverse, arid conditions.
		It has little to do with reality." Yes, Hidalgo is a family film (albeit a mediocre one), and it deserves to be seen for what it is, not as the centerpiece of a controversy that has resulted from Disney's dishonesty.

		"Hidalgo" is based on the real-life story of Frank T. Hopkins, a long-distance racer in the Old West, and his mustang, Hidalgo.
		Hidalgo, the horse, and Viggo Mortensen, as Frank T. Hopkins, completely won my heart as well as a place in "Great Couples of the Silver Screen", or at least as great partners in a buddy movie.
		This movie version of the 3000 mile race Hidalgo and Hopkins were said to have run across the Arabian desert to keep their title as "greatest long distance race runner" is an old-fashioned popcorn-movie-as-entertainment movie.
