There are Bad Movies and then there are Worse. Who Wrote this garb and WHY???
vorion_zydel27 December 2021
A 4.5 rating is impressive for this... must be one of those where the movie makers made the whole crew and all their friends to rate it a 10 on their smartphones, while honest viewers of this film would rate it a 2 in mass

The jokes and dialogue are terribly cliché, I heard better jokes when I was in 2nd grade in 1992. Case in point: a scene where an idiotic fat man turns and runs off in a weird way for cheap laughs while the man jokes to the horse "He was dropped on the head when he was a baby"... when hearing this most generic line I had to click it off.

This movie is utter horse dung that flashes through your tv screen! Can't fathom at all how such a film is greenlighted, it has to take connections and then some - cause this movie is downright depressing and my kids are forever blinded

There are bad movies and then there are worse... this is worse than ya can imagine.

It is painfully slow
higrm24 November 2021
I tried, I really did, but I just couldn't get past the first 30 minutes. It is just not watchable. I pride myself on being able to sit through the worst movies until the end, but this time, I didn't see the point. I thought the premise could be fun to watch: talking horse with a happy ending. But the character of Tony is just so incredibly unlikable in a creepy, misogynistic kind of way, that I didn't want to stay in a make-believe world where a guy like that gets a happy end.

How does anyone come up with an idea this frikkin cornball? If I'm 5 yrs old I'm throwing gasoline on this DVD and lighting it on fire so my parents can never replay it.

it sticks!

Warning: Spoilers
Truly pathetic little movie that involves a jon lovitz horse interacting with bizarre pseudo-people in a variety of porno shooting locations.

D-grade jeff garlin and f-grade richard lewis have teamed up to reimagine their 'curb your enthusiasm' personas as degenerate gamblers who desperately teeter through a life of kidnappings, arrests, brain injuries, threats of gangland murder, insect-based fraud and fetal alcohol syndrome.

The story is convoluted and bizarre. I think that the writer forgot about what he had written and continued on instinct. Was the whole point of the lady's plan to get some money? Then why lie about the husband? How did that help? Does the mother actually have custody of the kid? Because when the father is kicking her out it seems as though the kid is staying with the father, implying that he has custody. If that's the case then why wasn't her plan to trade jon lovitz for custody? Also, if the mother has custody then the kid will be separated from the jon lovitz horse so that wouldn't resolve the main problem. Did she re-marry the husband that she hates? Did she buy the jon lovitz horse? Also, as explained in the stable scene, tony has the ability to speak to all horses, so he doesn't need the jon lovitz horse and can continue going to the stable and getting betting information, but he doesn't. Why? Because he couldn't afford any more studio time with jon lovitz? He doesn't have $17?

It seemed like the writer had a few half-remembered cliches that brougt him to 45 minutes, then gave up and had them win money and everything is good now because gambling saved the day but gambling is also bad.

Thank you, mr. Lovitz, for helping us believe in love, miracles and christmas, again.

A true classic
shagee797720 November 2021
You have everything for a Christmas classic all in one. A great story, funny loving characters and a talking horse voiced by Jon Lovitz. Beautifully directed by Asif Akbar.

Fun for the whole family.
