Orphan Horse

More than a movie about a young orphan girl's healing relationship with a horse who is also an orphan, it is a story of how this relationship also ends up repairing the lives of those around her. Exceptional acting and everything else makes this movie a great one for families with older children to watch. Keep a box of tissues handy.

While watching this movie the cogs in my brain start turning, the fact she renames the horse orphan becuase its parrents are dead really speaks to me. When I die i want my kids to have their names changed orphan in my honor. I would like to personally thank the writers for this beutiful moment, from the bottom of my heart. I also love how the horse feels so real, top teir CGI. Tho maybe the movie would be better with an animal that actaully exists like a moose or something. I still love the movie and can look past its "horses" Most easy 10 stars ive ever given, I would give it 11 stars if I could.

Of you want tears, and joy, this movie fits the bill. The relationship between John Voigt and Alexa Nisenson is probably the most heartwarming movie. I would recommend this movie for anyone.

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...

Parents should know that this movie has child abuse, a wolf attack, and a horse's death. But it's a good story of an orphan girl finding a family, and a grumpy old man connecting with people again. And the child abusers are arrested in the end. Jon Voight's a good actor. And I didn't have a problem with the rest of the cast's acting. Did anyone else think that the girl's mom was going to turn out to be Lucy? I thought Caroline would be her aunt.

This movie was in the Dollar Tree grab bin, for one dollar, if that tells you anything. I only give it three stars because it really was only one dollar. The only fun that came out of this movie was the fact that is was hilariously bad. Between the mediocre acting, stupid naming conventions, and predictability, I could hardly contain myself because it was so laughably bad.

Picked up a copy of the DVD for cheap at the store because it sounded like an interesting and wholesome movie. We were pleasantly surprised. Yes, some of it was predictable, but it was still pretty clever how the story played out and things were tied together. It was not "draggy" at all, and held our interest throughout. There were a couple of times where we actually cheered. But you should also have a tissue handy. The only real criticisms we had was that there were no subtitles (Mom is hard of hearing, and wears aids) and even when the volume was turned way up on her TV some of the dialogue was missed, even by me. But overall, it was a nice escape -- especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Lately we've been doing takeout lunch and a new movie, and this one fit the bill nicely.
