“Bennett’s War” (*** out of four) was a stirring drama about a young soldier (Michael Roark) who is severely injured in combat with a broken back and leg and is medically discharged and has to overcome the personal and physical odds to become a champion motocross racer to support his loving family (Trace Adkins and Allison Paige). Powerhouse acting by all takes center stage here and makes this a must-see, even as some of the story melodramatics are a little hokey. Adkins, in particular, sears the screen as his dedicated and caring father. A small winner all around.
