Why people love it

Seabiscuit (2003) stuck because it commits to its drama premise without apologizing—viewers remember set pieces and momentum as much as plot. Gary Ross's control of tone keeps the ride coherent. The drama and history blend is the engine: it lets the film shift registers without feeling like two different movies stitched together.
