Pros: A Beautiful, Visually Stimulating Film from Robert Redford. Cons: An Underused Supporting Cast, Slightly Inconsistent, Uneven Script, & Lack of Chemistry in Redford/Thomas Romance.
One of the most revered icons in films for the past 40 years, Robert Redford has captivated audiences in both as an actor and a director. He won recognition for memorable performances in movies like “Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid”, “All The ...
Pros: Great Acting, Heartfelt and Sad Cons: A bit slow, but worth it.
When I first watched The Horse Whisper I cried It is a very heartbreaking movie about love, trust, long-suffering, and changes in life.
Annie Maclean ( Kristin Scott Thomas )stars as a very pushy magazine editor.
Robert Maclean ( Sam Neill )...
Redford's re-entry into the movie theaters as the aging but gentle man dealing with not only wounded horses but also wounded people is a heartwarming event. Kristen Scott Thomas plays the mother who has allowed her career to overshadow her relationships...
Pros: Some good wide angle scenic shots Cons: Cliche ridden; supports marital infidelity; slowwwwww....
I got dragged to this by an ex-girlfriend. I'll admit, I was biased going in: I thought this would be a Harlequin romance type book in film form, and I think I was right... I'll admit, I'm writing this aware of being biased from a male point of view,...
Pros: Good acting by minor characters, great story line Cons: too many to list
I started reading the book, immediately bonding with the characters. I couldn't wait for the movie to come out! I had to go buy it! What a disappointment! Robert Redford is a good character actor and I have liked a few of his movies. He must have...
Yes, it's nearly three hours long, and the story does drag at times during the film's second half. But The Horse Whisperer has compelling characters, understated direction, a decent script, and very good cinematography.
Pros: She didn't sleep with the guy; long enough to get your money's worth Cons: Graphic violence not for the young
I love horses. I love scenery. I love a good story. I love this movie.
A single caveat: the scene in which the horses are hit by the tanker are graphic and scary - if you are viewing the film with anybody even slightly impressionable, this...
Pros: Visually wonderful, Robert Redford Cons: slow plot (after the first few minutes), fairly long (almost 3hrs)
I read the book first, then saw the movie, which was probably a mistake. The book is wonderful, and I highly recommend it, even for those who have seen the movie (the ending is different in the book). Actually, much of the story is different in the...
Pros: Fabulous directions and visually spectacular Cons: A little slow in parts
"The Horse Whisperer" is a vision to view. With Robert Redford's direction and performance, you know this must be a great film. It truly is wonderful and such a feast for the eyes.
The Big Sky Country scenes in this movie were fantastic. I felt like I was visiting Montana again myself. After that the film was a disappointment to me. I was persuaded to go see this one by my husband who rarely goes to the theater to see a...
Pros: Stunning and beautiful. A must-see. Cons: Compromised ending.
THE HORSE WHISPERER: Drama. Robert Redford's "The Horse Whisperer" is so stunningly beautiful and gloriously enervating, that it can be (mostly) forgiven for it's highly compromised ending (which I will not give away). Redford directs himself...
Pros: Great cinematography! Cons: Inaccurate, hard-to-believe tale with poor horse training scenes.
While I know many who loved this movie, as a professional horse trainer, I found too many inaccuracies and far-fetched scenes to truly enjoy the movie. To it's credit, the cinematography was exceptional. The crash scene was very well done and the views...
When a young girl is in a bad accident involving a horse, a friend's horse, and her best friend she is damaged. Her leg was removed and she can never ride again. Her mother decides to bring her on a road trip to find a "Horse Whisperer". This...
Pros: Intelligent story, powerful acting. Cons: Pace may be too slow for some people.
I don't always agree with making movies from popular novels. Some books just don't lend well to onscreen adaptations. Getting inside characters heads is a lot more interesting on the page than it can be portrayed onscreen. I did not read The Horse...
Pros: Show's the ability of what one person can do Cons: Some of the plot is off
I enjoyed this movie a lot! It was a very compelling and heartwarming story about a young girl who battles many obstacles. She has to overcome herself a long with the disability that she already has. She shows to be a very strong and powerful young...
