Hidalgo
By Alex Kelly from London, England , 12 Jul 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
The first thing that struck me was the blatant copy of Indiana Jones, not any movie in particular but just the style, script and action that we can see in all the Jones movies. The basic plot is Hopkins (Mortensen) is a hard bitten cross country horse rider who is up for any adventure and his faithful horse-Hidalgo-is the ?best horse in the world?. He accepts a challenge to race in the ?Ocean of Fire? in Africa. Yet nothing goes to plan and it ends up a rescue mission to save the Sheik?s (Omar Sharif) daughter. Mortensen is enjoyable to watch on screen yet for me was not the main drive of the movie. Sharif is, of course, outstanding and steals everyone?s thunder when he is on screen. Apart from these two renowned actors, everything else remains fairly wooden and boring. For hardened Indiana Jones fans, this movie may be extremely cringing it places and just bad in others, yet if you want a decent yarn with some good action set pieces then rent this movie. Overall, I?d give it 8 out of 10, yet this is only a guide and this movie may not be to everyone?s taste and movie buffs may find it hard to watch.- Was this review helpful to you?

Hildalgo straite to your heart and soul ;)
By trayzeestaff (21 reviews) from Cornwall, England , 02 Jul 2012if your feeling lost and you have a history with horses, animals and feeling lost powerless and outcast, this will not only uplift you, but suck you into a sense of relief, joy, a sense of who you are deep down,, and make you feel like being yourself is worth fighting for! ;)- Was this review helpful to you?

not a bad film
By cheesekake (1282 reviews) from uk , 18 Mar 2012this film has some funny sections, and is quite interesting, but tends to drag on a little for my liking, no offence meant to viggo who is brilliant as always.
worth a look at least- Was this review helpful to you?
