Horse Crazy

We loved this movie! The setting was beautiful, with soft white horses against a backdrop of red rock and blue sky. It's perfect blend of humor, suspense, and fantasy, make it a show everyone will enjoy watching, no matter what their age!!! A must have!!!!

This is a very enjoyable flick for the whole family. One young boy, who requires the continuous close supervision of his younger sister, dreams about horses constantly.

When a young "Texan" shows up in his class with a rope and the teacher says that mustangs run wild in Nevada and then he discovers his older brother is driving to Nevada, the die is cast.

I gave this flick a nine.

A nice break from the typical children movies that main stream Hollywood studios churn out. A well acted, funny, kid's crime drama that should please adults as well as most kids ten and under. Especially those kids who love horses and what kid does not love horses! The plot provides a couple of bumbling bad guys, a trio of enterprising young hero's, and a scenic desert landscape to go along with the horses. I could find few faults with this off-Hollywood production. Some might complain the plot is a overly simplistic, but that is as it should be for a movie aimed at young kids. Besides the movie gives us a more character depth than most kids movies when it comes to the three young protagonists. You cannot go wrong with this film. Check it out.

In one respect at least movies have improved enormously since the 30's-through to the 50's.I refer to the quality of child actors,with the posturing moppets of that era giving way to more adroit and skilled performers like Osment,Woods and even Maculkin.Sadly,the juvenile leads here are a throwback to the earlier era and do not suggest any great skill in the thespic arts.Pausing and gulping visibly before delivering lines the moppets-2 male,1 female slow down an already funereal pace to an extent that the movie becomes irritating rather than cute They play kids who decide to stowaway in the car of a teenager driving to see his girlfriend with the idea of capturing wild mustangs.They become embroiled in the kidnap of a prize winning horse by some villains who never remotely suggest genuine menace being as incompetent as the pair in Home Alone The scenery is nice but that's about all the movie has going for it

Avoid ,unless you like horses or pine for the scenery west of the Mississippi

Yet the whole time I was entertained by the cartoonish villains and those kids. It's cringey but it was a good source of entertainment for eighty or so minutes. Hats off to the Horse Crazy cast and crew...
