29 The Great Alaskan Race

(#15) The rather inauspicious directorial debut for actor Brian Presley (who also stars) retells the uplifting true-life sled dog journey that inspired the Iditarod. At least one critic suggests that you are better off watching Balto, the animated film covering the same subject.

“With its general tone of inspirational uplift that’s too often spelled out in dialogue rather than felt, The Great Alaskan Race bears the same relation to “faith-based entertainment” that it does to action-adventure cinema: It gestures in that direction, yet doesn’t actually make the commitment.” —Dennis Harvey, Variety
