This film really touched my emotions as far as they can go. A deep connection to human to a horse is unbelievably beautiful to watch.
As Joey is being forced to pull a train, a catapult and heavy weapons, I can see the thoughts about his master in his two forlorn eyes. I watched as, not just Joey, but all the other horses too pushing themselves to the absolute limit.
A really close friend of Joey's, Topthorn, helps him get his master, Albert, who was fighting in World War 2.
By the time Joey arrived to the battlefield, as he ran, his legs got tangled up in barbed wire and the wires digging deep inside his flesh.
Steven Spielberg's Master piece has blessed the world with one of my absolute favorite film, War Horse. If you love horses then this is the ideal film for you. This film contains really sad scenes and moments, so if you want you can skip those scenes. I like this film because it has: courage, bravery, and adventure.
