...Rapturously pretty and filled with surprising passion....Thewlis is an arresting, eerily authentic actor...
New York Times
Assuming a good picture is one that transcends its own material -- pulls in a variety of people with no special interest in the subject -- then "Black Beauty" is a lumbering candidate for the glue factory.

Rating: 3/5 --
This Black Beauty, unlike earlier versions of the book, wisely follows Sewell's lead and concentrates instead on this generous, trusting horse and the consequences of its encounters with humanity.

Rating: 2/4 --
It plays like a cross between New Age mysticism and anthropomorphism run amok.

...The elegant cast works well and sincerely.... Girls will inevitably love all this...
Entertainment Weekly
Stalwart, evocative and in every respect passable ...

Product Description:
This fifth feature adaptation of Anna Sewell's classic 1877 novel comes to life, told from the point of view of Black Beauty himself -- who narrates the film. Set in England, Black Beauty (who has a British accent) tells us the details surrounding his birth, his "colt-hood", and his perception of humans, since he has various owners throughout his life. While some of these proprietors are caring and compassionate, others prove to be cruel and crude to the vulnerable Beauty, often placing him in life-threatening situations--which he may or may not survive.
