4.0 out of 5 stars Shy Boy, October 2, 2006

This review is from: Shy Boy: The Horse That Came in From the Wild (VHS Tape)

To start off with, I'm a horse lover from way back; as a matter of fact even raised a foal--a colt which I named Rocket, sorrel in color. This was way back in the 1970's when they were shooting rockets into space & I think almost near the time sending the (1st. Man to the Moon). At any rate...let's get back on track; boy just thinking back makes me feel ancient!
I recall watching this film on TV somewhere several years ago and was very impressed with it. And ever since then I've been wanting the Video. But then DVD popped up and decided to wait til it came on DVD--and waited and waited and waited. Hey, how much of a hint does one need...someone? I'm getting tired of waiting. And I bet there are some other people who'd like to see Shy Boy on DVD as well; but be that as it may, I'm sure soon enough someone will get the hint and wella our wish will come true.
It's a great film and I'm sure it will be worth the wait to be on DVD format. Final word? Every horse lover should watch Shy Boy.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Shy Boy: The Horse That Came in From the Wild (VHS Tape)

The overall look of the film is dull enough to turn off those who are looking for a good documentary. The narration is dull and Monty and the narrator keep stating things like ('This wasn't staged' and 'this horse really did get tame'). Much of the narration consists of Monty and the main narrator insisting that the methods works, it wasn't staged, etc, etc...almost as if they had some insecurities about the methods themselves! The transition from scene to scene is choppy and the cinematography is lame. Some of the lines during the whole release thing with Shy Boy seemed rehearsed, such as Tara's emotionless insistence that Shy Boy will come back...a very dull film. You'll regret it. The only interesting segment was the curing of the racehorse, Blushing ET
