Featured review
Pleasant, easy to watch, good family movie!
Don't listen to bad reviews! This is a pleasant, easy to watch, good family movie! Especially if you like horses and family!
It's about an orphan horse (duh) and other orphans. Maybe that sounds depressing, but it is a delightful movie. And it has a happy ending of course.
I guess there are a few parts that are difficult. IMO nothing that's going to drastically upset children, well, idk for sure. Depends on the child oc.
Not sure if this qualifies as spoilers: Wolves, horse put down, horrible foster parents -- all rough stuff. OTOH no cursing at all, you don't actually /see/ anyone or any animal actually shot or hurt. But anyone mature enough will know what happened.
There's also some intrigue - but I won't spoil it.
Acting was good, the little girl, very good. And don't believe whoever wrote about audio being bad. It's wasn't I've /heard/ movies with bad audio and this wasn't bad at all. Production was good, filming, srsly no complaints.
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I actually teared up a little at the end. I'd recommend it to my kids and younger grandkids. Our youngest g-kid is 4 -- and he would enjoy it and would most prolly miss what happened to the horse badly hurt by the wolves...
