J G 12/22/2023 Absolutely amazing movie ! Shines a much needed light. On the traum caused by residential schools. See more Martin B 04/12/2023 I wanted to be a story about a boy that used hockey to rise up out of the terrible circumstances he was dealt as a child. What it was, a story of a boy that loved hockey, was transcendant playing it and threw it all away succumbing to his childhood miseries. Sullen, uncommunicative, drowning in his anguish never finding any relief in the love and friendship many extended to him. A cliche as a native ending up a drunk and naturally if the Catholic church is involved the priest that helped him get his start in hocky had to be sexually abusing him as well. In the end this story used hockey as the hook but was mostly a cliche. Informative maybe but with a lot of cheap, predictable plot gadgets as well. See more 02/15/2022 A hard but honest look at the racist boarding school system. Very well done. See more 02/06/2022 Amazing movie, quite depressing but shot very well, with a completely unexpected twist. See more 10/25/2021 I enjoyed this movie overall and the story it told about the native Indians and the hardships they faced being merged into so-called civilized society with the white man. I'm not sure if this was based on a true story or not but it was a shame that this Indian hockey player didn't reach his full potential in the NHL due to his own teammates not fully supporting him or having his back on the ice. See more 10/17/2021 While it may not have fully lived up to the source material, "Indian Horse" is more timely and moving than ever. Brilliantly using a nation's love for hockey as way to speak hard truths about the darker aspects of our history, this film resists a Hollywood happy ending while still offering genuine hope.
