- Critics' reviews
-
-
"'The Black Stallion' is one of the few movies that justifies the word 'sublime'"
-
"Generations from now, when people talk about horse movies, they won't be talking about 'National Velvet' or 'My Friend Flicka,' they'll be talking about the majestic beauty of Carroll Ballard's The Black Stallion"
-
"The film represents a studied, sophisticated approach to instinctual emotions: it's carefully, calculatingly naive, and amazingly it works"
