War Horse

Not scheduled to open until Christmas Day.

While Alien was having a high holiday time with Harold and Kumar, my assistant reporter SW filed this review:

This movie is a great adventure for everyone. The movie is set in rural England and Europe during the first World War where England is at war with Germany. A horse named Joey is raised by a boy to be a farmhand until Joey is sold to the British Army. The boy tells the horse that someday they will be back together. This is a tale that describes how a horse touches the lives of many people, including children, family, British and German soldiers. Steven Spielberg makes you feel that the horse is telling the tale, using many short stories with humor and emotions. Definitely a magnificent movie with many touching scenes. There were teary eye movie goers during and at the end of the movie. It's a 4+ out of five for me.
