A Horse from Heaven

I just attended the premiere of this movie and it was one of the most fun audience experiences for me and my family. The whole audience was laughing, crying, and commenting during the whole show because we could all relate to the very likable characters...as well as some of the more sassy ones.

I overheard one of the young audience members say, "I wish there were more films like these." I couldn't agree more. These days, it is so challenging to find a movie that the whole family can enjoy without being concerned about alarming language or bathroom humor. Even the animated movies are awash with cruddy messages.

This film is filled with lessons about faith, trust, honesty, friendship, stewardship, compassion. It reminded me of the great Sunday night movies that Disney used to broadcast back in the 70s.

If you ride horses, you would know how terrible this movie is. The acting is awkward, the riding and equitation is absolutely terrible. I used this movie as a way to practice being a trainer because every time they rode, there was so many things to critique. Even the girl who had supposedly ridden her entire life had very little skill. I would not recommend watching.

This is perfect for the Disney channel. Beautiful Horses, some great scenery, perfect lighting, good acting, good lessons, balanced male - female energy, fantastic real colors on my Plasma TV. My Xbox handled this YouTube movie without any problems. Devan Key was brilliant in this well grounded, safe family movie & what a perfect role. If this movie goes to Disney, I'll sign up. Congratulations!

I think if you are ten years old and love horses you will love this. Unfortunately for me it was one long cliche from beginning to end, no surprise plot twist or anything! Also the riding is atrocious, even the so-called 'advanced' riders were painful to watch. It's obviously one of those 'churned out' movies that they know will attract viewers because it has horses and is heartwarming and I suppose there's nothing really wrong with that, but it could have been so much better.

A Champion Heart is an often predictable movie like so many animal based movies are. It does however have a good message and is a sweet family film. I was watching this while babysitting and my nephew actually put down his toys and started watching it with me. We both enjoyed it.

Apparently this is a Christian movie, I had no idea till I came here to IMDb it never preachers to the viewer and as an atheist I respect that.
