Was reading a few reviews. Doesn't sound to promising.
Anyone seen it?

    I always figure movies focusing on animals will be tearjerkers - look at Marley and Me, and Red Dog. I cried at both. I haven't seen War Horse yet but some friends have, and they liked it a lot. I'll wait for it to come to DVD so I can sniffle at home in privacy :-)

    I have not seen it, but according to imdb.com:

    Ratings: 7.3/10 from 16,849 users Metascore: 72/100
    Reviews: 249 user | 205 critic

    That doesn't seem to bad to me. Especially for a move that's nearly two and a half hours long.

    I actually had the pleasure of seeing it on a stage and it was one of best plays I've ever seen. Still didn't beat Les Miserables though..

      Audrey - I'm the same!

      I'm really looking forward to seeing this - but it will be DVD or on demand so I can watch and sniffle. Horses are my great love and previews show a magnificent animal. I demand a happy ending...for the horse, at least!

    The photography is great, reminding me of the Black Stallion. The story is pretty much Lassie Come Home within a war setting.

    On a grade scale I'd give it a solid B.
    Communication is instinct in ALL species. How do you think they create packs and herds if they can't communicate? Animals do a lot more communicating within their species, and across species than you seem to realize.
