All right, but nothing special, 17 March 2001
6/10

This is a lot like "Black Beauty", with the exception that it is narrated (by Lucas Haas) from the horse's perspective . It is entertaining, however there is nothing special / or that has not been seen before. Worth watching, but don't expect to be overcome with emotion, as it is also very predictable.
