    Worthless Family Film Trash!!!

    This movie is the worst I've seen since Puppy Star Christmas!!! What is the point to have a so called "magic horse show bend" hit human characters on the head to get them to understand the horse talking to them? Not only this, but the main antagonists of this film are portrayed as null and totally unintelligent enough to have a point of evil plans in mind for this talking horse (pony as they would call this film's title). And to think that on Amazon Prime Video , this movie would cost only $1.00 total to buy either SD or HD. These producers have no one but themselves to blame for the cheap cost of this piece of junk! Good luck being any successful in the film industry as Walt Disney and George Lucas!!

    A Talking Horse, That's Hilarious!!

    This movie was a great family film with a lot of hilarious parts. I highly recommend it. The acting was not the greatest, and the plot was somewhat predictable, but it was generally good overall. It was also comforting to know that there remain some movies with a wholesome message that are safe to be viewed by the entire family. I was a bit frightened at first that the concept of a talking horse might be blasphemous and frighten my children, but in the end that fear was unfounded, and like me, they found it quite hilarious. I would recommend this movie to anyone - not only animal lovers. I mean who wouldn't want to see a Talking Horse, there is a reason Mr. Ed has remained relevant all these years. Frankie

    A Slightly Below-Par Family Film

    David DeCoteau's film contains an imaginative, humorous premise that does not quite live up to expectations. Horatio, the talking horse, is funny, but has little impact on the story. As are Juliet's brothers, but they have the same issue. The forty-second establishing shots between each scene are a bit indulgent, though they are quite pretty. Much of the story is taken up by Kim, Juliet's mother-in-law, having business discussions with Mr. Beetle, which are likely to bore children and adults. No spoilers, but the resolution comes out of nowhere and is pretty anticlimactic. Overall, it's alright entertainment for kids, but is certainly a meager offering.

    Needs more establishing shots.

    This movie would only be a 20-minute short if not for the multiple establishing shots and repeated scenes of Jules grooming and riding the horse. And it'd still be too long. Yes, it's a kids' movie but kids deserve better than this drivel.
