A technically efficient and sentimental melodrama about a miraculous horse. The highlight of the movie is the barbed wire scene of the horse. Though I did not like Spielberg's staunch insistence on happy ending which leaves a soft impression to such a superfluous and heavy handed movie based on the World War calamity!
WAR HORSE is merely a mixed bag. The fashion in which plains, prairies, fields, and even horses are depicted is downright beautiful. But that's to be expected from a Spielberg film, who has all the money in the world to throw into his productions. And I can only imagine and I'm almost sure if I'd have read the novel, it would have bored me to death. All in all, nice one time watch.
