Warhorse One (2023)
8/10
DON'T pay attention to the bad reviews - this is a good movie!

Everyone's a critic these days!

DON'T pay attention to the bad reviews from people wrongly trying to compare this movie to the "Covenant", "Kandahar" or even "Extraction"... it's not trying to be that kind of movie!

In the first place, "Warhorse One" is NOT a big- budget film, so to try and compare it on that level is ridiculous. What does work is the premise of saving a little girl from Afghanistan after her missionary family has been killed. It uniquely works. Especially after the real-life Israeli children kidnappings. The movie has typical low budget flaws but the unique storyline and strong performances from Johnny Strong and Athena Durner, keep the story interesting and emotionally compelling.

I enjoyed the happy ending, beautiful scenery and interesting locations like the village where seasons 1 & 3 of the show "The Chosen", was filmed (Capernaum Studios, in Texas).
