Black Beauty - Una storia di coraggio

The main actress appeared very motivated in helping the horse. I would give her that 100%. Her expressions are very beautiful and sincere, so I can see why she was chosen to have that role. Grandpa did a good job as well. He appeared very generous and close to his granddaughter.

The other characters were a bit off, but they were pretty irrelevant to the movie theme.

I think folks may be a bit disappointed cause they're used to the Disney formats. But I think the movie did a good job portraying the struggles of a teenager fitting in, and how she's able to put the energy into something she enjoys, the country, the horse, and life simplicity.

what a bomb, man. don't even know how this lousy script was approved into production. terrible screenplay with horrible storyline, bad directing and lame acting. annoying, bad and almost non-stop irrelevant country songs again and again, so bothering and disturbing. the storyline sucked big time with weakest plot, dialog and whatever came into mind. the young actress who played the main role is not a good and talented enough actor. in addition to this young female, the actor who played her mother is also a lame actor. the whole film looked so unreal and so pretentiously fake. staging scene after scene. and when the grandpa drove away with the horse trailer, he even ran across a stop sign without stopping. the young female heroine couldn't stop smiling all the time or even looked at the camera irresistibly. the ranch they used to tell the lousy story obviously was rented. the grandpa didn't look like a rancher, the newly built barn was the only nice structure in this film, but obviously belonged to someone else in the real world. again and again, the bad annoying country songs were sung that bothered us a lot, giving me impression like the movie producers liked to market those lousy country songs to apple store. all in all, what a terrible...no, horrible film that should never have okay-ed into production in the first place. it's very very memorable for being one of the worst films ever made, even worse than those lousy films produced by 'Lifetime' channel or from 'Hallmark'.

I knew Daniel Zirilli, the man who produced and directed this firm. He passed a few weeks ago. He never had a large budget as I'm sure was the case with Black Beauty, but was responsible for dozens of films that gave actors, new and old, and character actors the chance to practice their craft. While most of Daniel's works were more violent action thrillers, this one is different. Clearly, he loved the film he created. This was one of Luke Perry's first movie opportunities. Look at Black Beauty closely keeping in mind that it was produced on a limited budget and you can appreciate what Daniel accomplished. It is a beautiful movie.

The romantic male lead looked like a girl, and acted like one, too. The acting was lousy on everyone's part except for the girl and the grandfather. The script was seemingly written by a ten year old. So why am I rating it so highly? It is honestly the funniest thing to make fun of. It was so terrible, it was hilarious. I mean, the further into the film I got, the more I wondered "how in the world did this ever make it this far?", and the more I laughed! Honestly, it's so terrible, you will enjoy it. Be in the right mindset, though. You can't just have had the worst day of your life before watching it or you'll probably throw a cat out the window. But if you're feeling goofy and giddy, turn this sucker on and laugh at how low the film industry has sunk.

This movie is so awful it was actually funny. Not sure what was worse, the script or the acting. The only good part was playing "Where in Rhode Island Are We?" The woman who played Audrey stood out, and not in a good way. I'm not sure what was worse, her acting or her voice-over. Unbelievably wooden. Rest of the cast was no better. The filming was nonsensical. The was lots of unnecessary slow motion shots that added to the overall cheesiness. The plot is *very* loosely related to the original story. Take a Dramamine if you are motion sensitive. I wanted to make like the horse and run away! Worst movie ever. Do yourself a favor and skip this dog!
