Just watched the movie "Warhorse One". I bought the movie for two reasons. One, was for the actor Johnny Strong. I like his work. The second, is I enjoy watching movies about the heroes that put their lives on the line to keep us safe.

I enjoyed the movie. I felt it was acted well. The cinematography was beautiful. While some may want more dialogue or action. I felt it was done extremely well.

After watching the film, I listened to the director/writer's commentary. Which was done by Johnny Strong, because he was the director and writer. I think he is amazing at his craft and look forward to watching more of his films in the future. It made me appreciate the film even more. Knowing what it took to create the movie.

This movie is well worth your time. There's always people out there who believe they're the next Siskel and Ebert who believe they have some great insight on cinematography or lighting or plot development. Don't listen to them. This is a fine movie, well done with plenty of action. Does the terrain look like the Colorado Rockies? Sure. Does the Taliban look like an office fantasy football league dressed in blankets? You betcha. But suspend disbelief for two hours and enjoy a low budget indie war movie. Remember, its not a documentary and never claims to be. Just enhance your calm and enjoy this film.

I enjoyed Warhorse One. Is it Lone Survivor? No it's an independent film made by Johnny Strong. The child actress was very endearing. I believe it's her first role. She does a great job if you consider her age and the fact she's running around the woods with Johnny. His last shootout with the bad guys was done very well I thought. I had memories of Rambo when he was in Afghanistan. The weapons handling and cinematography was done well. Again it's not a big budget film so you can find things to criticize if you want. Geez how many big budget films are complete garbage?? I respect what he's doing and the message he's putting out. Give it a chance.
