For sublime equine you'd be hard pressed to find a better mount than 'War Horse.'

It's about as manipulative a film has Steven Spielberg has ever made - a movie that's been custom-designed from the ground up to play a sad harp solo on the heartstrings; a story cynically told to invoke as many tears as possible.

Steven Spielberg's "War Horse" is an imperfect film, but certainly is a beautiful one.

They will keep trying and trying until only the blackest of hearts are left un-moved. I guess I should hand in my organ donation card because I clearly don't have a heart judging from the dismissive reaction I had to this patently artificial film.

Spielberg still manages to surprise and impress.

Amid the incomprehensible slaughter, it's a horse that reminds these warriors of their humanity.

Etched in the simple, bold strokes of a passed-down fable. Resistance is futile.

The material sometimes feels oversugared, though it's also guaranteed to raise a lump in your throat.

The trouble here is not so much that Spielberg's film staunchly insists on finding a happy ending even in the calamity of the First World War, but that he slathers it on so thick and leaves so soft an impression.
