Horse Sense (1999)

Touches You

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Brothers Joey and Andrew Lawrence play cousins in this Disney Family film Horse Sense. Joey is a spoiled preppy California beach type gets a chance to live with his country cousin.But first it's young Andrew who comes for a visit to the rich city folks and it's Joey who's put in charge of keeping him busy and happy. But Joey blows the poor kid off and as a punishment the parents cut him off from credit cards and send him to live in the country where his widowed aunt Susan Walters are just trying to hang on to their ranch and keep it out of the grasp of a Snidely Whiplash type villain.Horse Sense is both something Joey develops and a nice family film to boot. In fact Joey's the one who saves the family ranch and what I liked about it shows he was paying attention in law school class more than anyone realized.

I Really really really liked this film i wanted to see it for ages but as i live in Britain they no channel ever showed it! But then the channel Trouble (who seem to be in love with Joey Lawrence! Just like me!!) Were having a whole day dedicated to him showing brotherly love and run of the house! But the main reason they did it was because they were FINALLY going to show Horse sense on British television!!! God bless Trouble t.v!!!!!! Anyway i watched the film and absolutely loved it. It's a really cute Disney movie starring two of the Lawrence brothers Joey and Andy. Its about this Kid called Tommy (Andy) who lives on a ranch with his mother in the country but is going to L.A to visit his older spoilt rich kid cousin Micheal (Joey)! But Micheal treats Tommy like crap so is forced by his parents to spend 30 days on Tommy's ranch! He starts off rough but after a while he truly begins to realise how hard Tommy has to work (even though he's only 11 years old!) And really learns a lesson and ends up saving the ranch!! All in one month! You go Joey!! I love you!!!!!

Disney "original" films, which almost always feature wise-cracking kids controlling their own type of fantasy world, are almost always ludicrous.However, Horse Sense, though not a great film altogether, is probably the best of the bunch (being Disney "Originals") because it offers a fairly interesting, though predictable story with an all too emotionally controlling ending. However, it's for the kids, which is why I give it 2.5/5 stars-JOHN ULMER

Very good performances by Andy and Matt! Andy is a little cowboy who is about ready to lose his ranch, his cousin Michael (joey) is forced to help out there by his parents, and winds up saving the day! My advice is to definately watch this movie if it is ever on Disney.
