War Horse

The film "War Horse" answers the question of what would happen if you made a movie about Forrest Gump that took place during WWI in the UK countryside (and other European spots), and oh yeah, Forrest Gump was a horse. 

Some bits were difficult to watch, as I'm not all that entertained by animals, even large animals like horses, being pushed to their limits and incurring depicted injuries and wounds.

Some of the plot points had that Gump feel to them, with shift of tone throughout the film that made viewing the film an awkward experience.

I give it 2.75 stars (mainly for earnestness) or a grade of B-.
