The new trailer is just all fluff. That along with expecting us to believe this horse has human emotions is just silly. Some of those shots are just wanting you to believe the horse is just about to start talking. Plus the whole film just looks way too staged. And what is with the "special horse" comment. It's a freaking horse!
I also don't like when directors make a film that is just there to make you cry about an animal.

It's OK, we're allowed to hate the things that are like this, the dumb kiddie movies or the ones that shamelessly push for the heartwarming schlock.
Yeah, I guess that's what Spielberg is know for.
Not really, I can't think of anything that he's done before that was a dumb kiddie movie trying to pander to the heartwarming thing
Right. It's not like E.T. was heartwarming or anything. Look at what a dumb kiddie movie that was.

What's wrong with heart warming movies?
I'm not sure. Apparently they're pandering and only for kiddies. And Spielberg's never made one.

It was a good movie overall. Some of the battle scenes were pretty cool. Sure it's got the heart warming feel to it.
But he's just trying to show the connection between the horse and the people who come across it.
It was half a war movie and half horse relationship movie.
I enjoyed, even though yes it felt staged. Cinematography was excellent.

There've been ads for this in the UK and i hate how it's been made...
The ad has that really inspiring sombre score and multiple quotes one one reviewer, not snippets from different reviewers just different quotes from the same one guy lauding it as the greatest thing since sliced bread as well as plenty of 'nominated for...' & 'from Steven Spielberg' texts
It's basically trying to trick people by saying it's made by this guy responsible for this & that, so it will be great and then giving quotes from only one review and loaded with cheesy cliche tearjerker moments.
Also it's confusing on if the story is about the soldiers or the horse

If you're confused about if a movie titled War HORSE is about soldiers or the HORSE this probably isn't the movie for you.

Everyone likes Horses
Like i said the ad showed a few moments of the horse and a few more moments of soldiers, so it wasn't clear on what the focus of the film was, just a poor ad.
