I turned this movie on cable just to see the horses, and even while only half-watching it I was appalled and disgusted by how outright horrible it is. Who paid for this dreck? How desperate were some of these name actors? It NEVER fails to amaze me how they can make movies about horses without KNOWING anything about horses! This "film" takes the term "bad movies" to a whole new level... not one I'm sure I can stand despite the beautiful scenery and horses. I'm not sure what's worse: the inane script, the half-ass and mailed-in acting, or the ham-handed editing. Not even worth it for the animals, and at least THEY can act. Run away. Fast.

Pretty much everyone else has already said it all. The acting was downright embarrassing. The adults were the worst, especially the bad guys. Even Connie Sellica was awful. The kids were much better actors than the adults.

The "black" Stallion is really brown. That's actually an insult to the viewer. Just how stupid do the producers think we are, that we're going to buy in that the horse is really black? Were you really so hard up you couldn't find a black horse anywhere to use for the film? Couldn't you have least used dye, or doctored up the film to make the horse look black? I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't even a stallion, or even a male horse.

I still have this on, but am only paying half attention to it now. I hate stopping a show before seeing it through to the end. That's why I'm warning future viewers to not even bother starting the movie at all.
