War Horse (12A)

Shockingly bad! The charge scene and no man's land scene are this movie's only redeeming features and worth the one star. Glad I didn't waste my money paying to see it in the cinema.

Don’t get confused when it comes to purchase a horse online as it is a very easy process with few streamlined steps. All you are required to do is explore online deals on horses for sale. After you have searched for a potential horse dealer ensure about its reliability. One can also browse online and look for deals on horses for sale USA to get area specific deals.

How can this sweet, oversentimental, over symplified film that make Dick van Dyke's regional cockney accent look bang on possibly be better than Schindler's List. As you patronisingly started your post, you must have pressed the wrong rating button.

For once I completely agree with the Timeout review. Yes its an OK film and it deserves 3 stars but no more. I have read this book and the book is written from the horses point of view. As a non horse lover I thought this would be my worst nightmare to read but it is written amazingly and you really warm to war horse and what he endures through the war. I dont think the film captures this at all. It leaves really important parts out, plays down the father at the start and doesnt build a big enough picture around the involvement of the grandfather and grandaughter. I also agree with the reviewer who commented on the other 3 1/2 years of the war being missing. Spielberg does not show enough of the bond between Topthorn and Joey with Topthorn's death being really underplayed and also what happens to Joey after that. Yes the war scenes are ok but this is not really the point of the story and as another reviewer pointed out was probably an opportunity for Spielberg to make up for previous cheesy American war films. As a Scot, the bagpipes during one war scene immediately disctracted me from the film as I thought "No!". Who honestly would have put these in a film other than a cheesy American. I also agree about the varied and mixed accents and the skyline at the end. What was that all about and what was the point in even mentioning the girl from the village if it wasnt going to show you her with Albert and Joey at the end?? They made more of that in the film than in the book then ignored it? A little disappointed all round.

if you go to the cinema to be entertained, then this film will. if you want deep meaningful characters . complex storylines, clever dialogue then look elsewhere. Spielberg is a Master of Entertainment and you should view his films as such.

A Hovis advert with violence.. performed in a variaty of random regional accents ... set in the deep south

Firstly this film is incredible. Secondly the timeout reviewer is completely out of line when saying he was thinking to much about scaring the horses and so he should of been no one is going to throw a horse into a situation where it is going to be extremely scared especially as a scared horse is an extremely dangerous thing not only to the horse but others around it too. He did everything he could with what he had to work with and he made a stunning film. You immediately grow attached to the horse and want more than anything for it to return safely. There are some genuinely beautiful scenes to be appreciated in this film. And I am not one to cry on a film but I cried like a baby for ages. It is a definete for horse lovers.

Absolutely loved this film....had a few violent parts but that's what happened in the war so no bad comments really :)

excellent film very moving.war scenes graphic but real and educational

Awful film.Badly structured story, characters you couldn't cre less about and naff dialogue. Pitched as Mr Ed meets Black Beauty meets Black Adder Goes Forth. Oh and the worse ever Devon accents! Sentimental dross. Avoid at all costs.
