Warhorse One (2023)
The child steals the show
27 August 2023
I won't give this a number. It's true that it's unreal that Mirko never runs out of ammunition. I noticed and I didn't care. I think it strange that he seemed to move faster and yet, somehow the "insurgents " always seemed to be right behind him. I'm sure that SEALS are better marksmen. He certainly was mistaken to have trusted the obvious enemy and more so to leave the child behind with him, but the rescue effort had to be set up. No one can cover so much challenging terrain and do it with no food and almost no water. There are many faults in the plot and the reflections when looking skyward were annoying to me. So what! I was entertained and amazed at everything that was conveyed in Zoe's expressions. I don't think that can be coached. It has to be natural talent. True, as 1 professional reviewer pointed out, one who acts with children or animals is sure to be upstaged, and Athena Duren did it without having to have a single word of dialogue. That smile...
