The main actress appeared very motivated in helping the horse. I would give her that 100%. Her expressions are very beautiful and sincere, so I can see why she was chosen to have that role. Grandpa did a good job as well. He appeared very generous and close to his granddaughter.
The other characters were a bit off, but they were pretty irrelevant to the movie theme.
I think folks may be a bit disappointed cause they're used to the Disney formats. But I think the movie did a good job portraying the struggles of a teenager fitting in, and how she's able to put the energy into something she enjoys, the country, the horse, and life simplicity.

Let me just say I loved the book and the previous movies and was really looking forward to this. But I just could not relate to a 30-year-old trying to play a 15-year-old girl. Really? Maybe it was the actresses fault but I believe it was a major mistake in casting. What? Are there no young actresses anymore? I honestly didn't get past the first 10 minutes. Maybe this is not a fair review but I was looking to get lost in a sappy girl and her horse story and it just was not even the tiniest bit believable. The whole introductory sequence seemed very stilted and forced. The horse is pretty at least. Oh, the actress Sarah Ann Schultz is lovely but so obviously NOT a teenager. She appeared to be older than her mom even. A pity because I imagine the story was exactly what I was looking for but I couldn't get past her age. Two thumbs down for me.
Honestly i dont care for the rest of the movie i thought it was ok. but talise zirilli really showed out. she has phenomenal skills in the acting world. she really showed out. shes the hidden star.
So i officially got to 7.46 into the film. Already irritated with the terrible acting i tried to push through, it just got worse... Seriously how could a movie that had such potential turn out like this. I can't even bring myself to watch the rest of the movie because of the bad acting, everything was too put on. I don't even want to get started on the terrible voice over bits that they have shoved in there at times when they should rather just leave it. Thankfully i came to read the reviews before i tortured myself with over an hour of utter nonsense... I'd rather just go watch the previous Black Beauty movie, it might be old but hey at least they new how to act back in the day. Not even worth killing time watching this... I'd rather watch paint dry.
what a bomb, man. don't even know how this lousy script was approved into production. terrible screenplay with horrible storyline, bad directing and lame acting. annoying, bad and almost non-stop irrelevant country songs again and again, so bothering and disturbing. the storyline sucked big time with weakest plot, dialog and whatever came into mind. the young actress who played the main role is not a good and talented enough actor. in addition to this young female, the actor who played her mother is also a lame actor. the whole film looked so unreal and so pretentiously fake. staging scene after scene. and when the grandpa drove away with the horse trailer, he even ran across a stop sign without stopping. the young female heroine couldn't stop smiling all the time or even looked at the camera irresistibly. the ranch they used to tell the lousy story obviously was rented. the grandpa didn't look like a rancher, the newly built barn was the only nice structure in this film, but obviously belonged to someone else in the real world. again and again, the bad annoying country songs were sung that bothered us a lot, giving me impression like the movie producers liked to market those lousy country songs to apple store. all in all, what a terrible...no, horrible film that should never have okay-ed into production in the first place. it's very very memorable for being one of the worst films ever made, even worse than those lousy films produced by 'Lifetime' channel or from 'Hallmark'.
