A modern retelling of Anna Sewell’s classic novel, Black Beauty explores the heartfelt story of 15 year-old Audry who makes the discovery of a lifetime whilst volunteering at a city animal shelter. Rescued from an abusive owner and recovering from a traumatic past, Black Beauty possesses a most unique quality of character, endearing itself to Audry and her Grandpa who adopt the horse in order to give it a second chance and perhaps even help revitalize their own family situation. Aided by dedicated trainer James and tested by the many challenges of equine life, Black Beauty has his work cut out for him as he embarks on a remarkable journey of discovery and friendship.

Absolutely the worst movie.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

"Black Beauty," a film centering on a 15 year-old girl who volunteers at a city pound, and convinces her Grandfather in the country to adopt a horse that was rescued from an abusive owner. They spend the summer rehabilitating "Black Beauty." Well i didn't expect this film to have great reviews but my god it's nowhere near as bad as a 3.6/10 it's still a sweet film with a really nice message and i'm sure it will eventually find it's right audience and i honestly think that the girl Audry (Jennifer Mckenzie) and Bruce Davison as Grandpa did a pretty good job as for the rest of the cast Luke Perry was decent but it does have issues mostly with the script where they try to throw in a love story and a rivalry between this girl and some big shot rich chick who by the way was awful both as a character and as an actress but overall i did found myself enjoying this movie it had 2 great performances, a sweet story and i knew what i was getting into and if you give it a chance you might enjoy it (7.7/10)

The main actress appeared very motivated in helping the horse. I would give her that 100%. Her expressions are very beautiful and sincere, so I can see why she was chosen to have that role. Grandpa did a good job as well. He appeared very generous and close to his granddaughter. The other characters were a bit off, but they were pretty irrelevant to the movie theme. I think folks may be a bit disappointed cause they're used to the Disney formats. But I think the movie did a good job portraying the struggles of a teenager fitting in, and how she's able to put the energy into something she enjoys, the country, the horse, and life simplicity.

This movie is so awful it was actually funny. Not sure what was worse, the script or the acting. The only good part was playing "Where in Rhode Island Are We?" The woman who played Audrey stood out, and not in a good way. I'm not sure what was worse, her acting or her voice-over. Unbelievably wooden. Rest of the cast was no better. The filming was nonsensical. The was lots of unnecessary slow motion shots that added to the overall cheesiness. The plot is *very* loosely related to the original story. Take a Dramamine if you are motion sensitive. I wanted to make like the horse and run away! Worst movie ever. Do yourself a favor and skip this dog!

what a bomb, man. don't even know how this lousy script was approved into production. terrible screenplay with horrible storyline, bad directing and lame acting. annoying, bad and almost non-stop irrelevant country songs again and again, so bothering and disturbing. the storyline sucked big time with weakest plot, dialog and whatever came into mind. the young actress who played the main role is not a good and talented enough actor. in addition to this young female, the actor who played her mother is also a lame actor. the whole film looked so unreal and so pretentiously fake. staging scene after scene. and when the grandpa drove away with the horse trailer, he even ran across a stop sign without stopping. the young female heroine couldn't stop smiling all the time or even looked at the camera irresistibly. the ranch they used to tell the lousy story obviously was rented. the grandpa didn't look like a rancher, the newly built barn was the only nice structure in this film, but obviously belonged to someone else in the real world. again and again, the bad annoying country songs were sung that bothered us a lot, giving me impression like the movie producers liked to market those lousy country songs to apple store. all in all, what a terrible...no, horrible film that should never have okay-ed into production in the first place. it's very very memorable for being one of the worst films ever made, even worse than those lousy films produced by 'Lifetime' channel or from 'Hallmark'.
