Maiden Reviews
Exceptional and inspiring! Incredibly heartwarming ❤
Liked the story,the cinematography, and the fact that it was about women doing something very well.these women wernt even expected to finish one leg of the yacht race,let alone win a leg of the race. The film was inspiring and audience clapped at the end!
The beautiful truth of this story.
This is an uplifting move once you get past her later childhood years and it all happened in 1989-90 era when independent women had it so-so good. In the world of limited expectations especially with regards to what women could do as a team this was before the current US Women Soccer Team that is. We loved it and the people in our showing applauded at the end of the movie.
Really compelling tale and the pacing of it helps you feel the marathon these pioneers went on. Filled with tension, trials, and triumph I absolutely loved this story that I hadn’t heard of before. What a ride the maiden and her crew took.
Wow for a documentary to bring a tear to the eye, along with Joy and laughter, this movie is special
Very touching story of the first female crew during the yacht races. You could feel the passion still all these years later with the women. Touching and well made.
Beautifully crafted documentary on a sport that not a lot of people know about. Raw emotional and powerful retailing of history. Spotlights how much more awesome women are than men.
Inspiring movie, beautifully filmed documenting strong determined young women with guts, humor and perseverance!!
Great inside look at a group of women who had a dream and went fort it!!
I loved everything about it.
Oh wonderful documentary films
Beautiful documentary
Absolutely thrilling. A must-see for every girl or woman.
I thoroughly enjoyed the fact that all of the film footage was actual videos of the people and events. The photography was excellent. I felt that I was in the boat with the women. Also - the fact that it is an all-women's event is spectacular I am a woman.
Wonderful REAL and TRUE STORY. I cried at the end.
The best part about it was that it was exceptionally inspirational - it made you feel like if you set your mind to something - against all odds - you could do it ! I liked the fact that it was based on a true story and included so much original footage - I liked the great coverage of the various around the world legs - and the amazing reception the crew of Maiden got - Even more than the boat which actually won the race ! It also inspired me to get out there and travel more.... I gave it 4 stars for all of this - The beginning I thought was a bit slow and it took time to build up - but not sure if the movie could have left any of that out ....
Wonderful movie. So empowering!
Really loved the combination of film from the time with recent interviews of key people to tell this very interesting story.
Beautifully woven documentary of empowerment to achieve ones goals in spite of the obstacles that stand in the way.
