War Horse is simple. Don't have any kind of tramps, spin or turns in his plot, but is a great example of how Steven Spielberg is one of the best story tellers in the history of cinema. This movie is a powerful piece of feeling, and a prodigy of technical talent.War Horse is made it at the "old school style" with a marvelous photography, an amazing soundtrack, a camera that just work close to perfection; and all of this with no overdose of CGI like the films of nowadays. I' ve seen all the movies os his director and im pretty sure that this one have THE BEST SHOT ever made by Spielberg: The scene of the Horse running out by the battle field... Because is just AWESOME. And see this part of the movie could be a good reason that deserves watch his more of two hours, and all the respect and admiration for one director that made us love that horse, like if was yours. Beautiful film.

... View MoreSteven Spielberg's "War Horse" does a beautiful job of developing a story through the eyes of a horse with assistance from his talented film crew. The famous filmmaker takes us back into WW I, where young Albert enlists to serve after his beloved horse is sold to the cavalry. Albert's hopeful journey takes him out of England and to the front lines as the war rages on, while his horse Joey experiences the war at full length as well. This idea for a story isn't that unique. It tends to serve almost like it was made for animation. What Spielberg does is take off the sugar-coated toppings and deliver an intense and often disturbing portrayal of a war that most people don't know enough about. This interesting film (though very sow at times shows a war in a different directorial manner, giving both a visually and spiritually beautiful story.
... View MoreSteven Spielberg is one of the best directors in film history, if not the best, made remarkable films as The Schindler List, Saving Private Ryan, Munich, Jaws, Jurassic Park and Indiana Jones trilogy, it is sad to see this great director is currently making only middling films, I hope he gets back to make great movies, War Horse is only reasonable, has a good soundtrack, impeccable photography, great costumes and a good cast, the script I found a bit lazy, had moments that I found very played, the direction of Spielberg is good more he loses hand after the half, the battle scenes are good technically, more does not excite, the acting is weak, the best actor is the horse, the special effects are good, the pace is kind of slow, the movie is too long, I liked the first 30 minutes after the film worsens, and an hour is well drawn, War Horse is an average movie has positive points, negative points stands out, Spielberg is losing the quality of your old movies. Note 5.0
