Horse lovers young and old will celebrate this utterly enjoyable and marvelous-looking animated film. The titular stallion runs free in the Cimarron (New Mexico) wilderness until a series of men try to master the proud horse, leading to adventures through a U.S. Cavalry fort, Native American settlements, and a railroad camp. Despite a heavy dose of political correctness and realism (the animals don't talk; we only hear Spirit's internal monologue, voiced by Matt Damon), directors Kelly Asbury and Lorna Cook give their hero many only-in-a-movie moments, including an action sequence rivaling any of Rambo's escapes. The stirring mix of 2-D and 3-D animation is absolutely stunning and aptly fueled by composer Hans Zimmer's synthesized score. The film earns one demerit for '80s rocker Bryan Adams's abundant songs--a different singer could have brought more to the film. Rated G but there is some rough treatment of horses shown, so nix the sensitive preschoolers. --Doug Thomas

 Great movie, great soundtrack November 13, 2008
LA (New England)
My daughter loves this movie, and I agree with her. It has minimal talking, which is unique, a great storyline and a beautiful soundtrack that Hans Zimmer and Bryan Adams crafted together. I recommend this to any horse-lover, and anyone who can appreciate a good, strong-spirited movie.
 Horse crazy November 11, 2008
S. Forsberg (Mason County, WA USA)
I bought this as a gift for my grandaughter who is horse crazy. She has seen it at least 50 times, but watches it from start to finish as though it were the first viewing. It is a good child's story.
Great, thought-provoking, feel-good movie August 31, 2008
Jennifer Glover (Savannah, GA)
I decided to order Spirit pretty randomly. I remembered enjoying it when I was younger and admired the production and the artwork.
The DVD itself has a fun, interactive menu and of course the movie is every bit as fun and inspirational as it was when I first watched it all those years ago. I would highly recommend it for girls 4-14 and believe boys could enjoy it, to a lesser extent, from 4-7 or so. Of course, if you're a fan of horses, you'll enjoy this movie at just about any age, and if you're interested in a very different style of animation, I would also suggest this movie for study (there is a LARGE amount of CG models painted over to appear 2D) The music is exceptional and Dreamworks handles it very differently from Disney, so it's a nice change.
If this movie has piqued your interest at all and you're reading this review to see if it'll convince you to or to not buy it...BUY IT. It's worth watching and sharing.
Great horse adventure August 16, 2008
Donald M. Sutorius (Lake Forest, CA USA)
Excellent never-give-up story. My son loves horses but the princess horse movies bore him. This has great adventure, he loves it.
Really Awsome! August 13, 2008
Picky viewer
"Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron" was a great movie that is worth watching by the whole family. With it's engaging storyline and fitting musical score, this is an inspiring tale of the little pony that could, or I shall I say, did.
In the beginning we me Spirit, the free to roam stallion of the west. We fall in love with him as we see breif encounters of his early life as comes into power as the leader of the heard. Very quickyly see his first encounter with humans, wich then leads to his captivity. The rest of the movie follows his slow coming friendship with an indian brave, as he regains his freedom and finds his heard.
The elements that I enjoy most about this movie would have to be the developement of spirit's character, and the greatly enjoyable music. Not only was the music fitting to the emotions and plot of the story, but in and of it's self a work of art. The way they gave human behavior to an animated horse is beyond me. Exept for him narrating, you really got to know spirit's personality throughout the movie.
Though I greatly enjoy this movie, there are some elements that I didn't really enjoy. There is an element that suggests how evil white people are, that's the only reason that this movie isn't a 5 star for me. Despite that though, this movie really worth watching and adding to anyone's library.
