  • Truly awful and devastatingly boring after the first hour. If you enjoy acting, music, plot, or your time/money then this "play" is not for you. The puppetry is impressive, but the shoddy script and acting left me wishing that the same puppets were in a better production. If they ever lower the astronomical prices for the seats it may be worth taking small children to or just seeing so that you may form your own opinion. However, at the current pricing scheme I felt duped for going. Really, just go see Phantom or Les Miz (which deserve 8 stars each if this rubbish deserves 5).

  • I absoluety loved The War Horse. It's incredible! Very mind blowing. I was so lucky to be able to see that West End! It was amazing.

  • Just wow. This was one of the best things I have seen on stage in years, and that despite the fact that the actual story is a lot of sentimental tosh. Forget the story - just watch and enjoy one of the best stagings ever. Most of all, this is miles better than the Spielberg film, which, having around the same amount of time to play with as the stage performance, managed to cut bits of the story which actually rendered it incoherent as well as tearjerking (Captain Nicholls). Can't compare to the book as I could not bring myself to read it. Go see it for the pure theatrical experience, you won't regret it. The rating is justified for that alone.

  • I have to say this disappointed me somewhat. The pupeteers and their costumes/puppets were mesmerising - and it is by no means a feat of absolute genius that they could get this all together on stage. When I wrinkled up my eyes, I could actually see real horses, which was quite breathtaking! However, the storyline was really underwhelming. I'd pay the same amount of money for a quarter of its length. I'd pay the money to witness the craft that went into it any day, but the rest was way below parr.

  • Echo RL&F's comments below. Exceptional puppeteering but once you've marvelled at that for a while you're left with two and a half hours of poor script, a clunky, obvious plot with mawkish ending and school-play level acting. We were in £52 seats to one side of the dress circle but were unable to see some scenes at all as they were set on the far right of the stage. The theatre is tatty and uncomfortably hot with inadequate air conditioning/ventilation - seriously in need of refurbishment.
