Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/16/25 Full Review Chet M I could see how it was going to end so that ruined it for me. I just turned it off. Redford's unemotional acting does nothing for me. So he has good hair that is not enough for me. I appreciate the delicate touch with the kissing scenes. I think they could have smoothed out the ugly scenes about the horses injuries. That was enough to turn me off. I just wanted to see Scarlett Jo. Romanticizing the ranching life is a joke for anyone who has lived it or been near it. Still worth watching though compared to most of the dull, pointless efforts we see these days. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/27/25 Full Review Gregory S I enjoyed how patient that Redford was with the story. Nothing was rushed. It is definitely a love letter to ranch life. Scarlett was incredible in this role. Especially for her age. The cinematography was absolutely gorgeous, as most Redford movies have. Just a great movie to watch on a day that you want to relax and slow things down. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Tim M Overlong and a tad sentimental, The Horse Whisperer nevertheless finds its stride thanks to committed performances and tender direction from Robert Redford. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/18/25 Full Review jim t The supporting cast is as good as it gets. However, like The Electric Horseman, this movie explains why God created Robert Redford. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/26/25 Full Review Blu B A Deep Cut Redford Classic. Editing & Pacing aren't bad. It has problems with a bloated runtime and jumping between the romance of the Mom and the actual overcoming of grief and fear of Grace. They feel like almost two seperate stories. It bounces quite a bit between the two. Another issue is scenes can drag on a bit too long as well. This is a really pretty film to look at and very easygoing but it needs to speed up at times. It feels like Redford is self indulging a bit too much here. Easily this could just cut some slow scenes and lose 20-30 minutes. And if you cut the Mom's romance subplot your talking almost an hour you could lose easily. But what saves this here is the solid execution of everything else. The direction is good, the performances are great, the setting is beautiful and the love it has for the country, horses, and the people/way of life is infectious. As they fall in love with the country way of life we do too. It's infectious and a testament to the chemistry and direction. There's also a clear underlying message of love for animal well being as well but that supirsingly never feels on the nose. It has a hallmark channel movie feel to it but with more layered characters, better direction, and production. Maybe a hint of Always too as this can get very sentimental at times too. But the characters are all likeable so and do great jobs across the board so it goes a long way. Anyone who is a fan of horses, the director, any actors in this, hallmark style flicks, or family movies should check this out.
