It is void of a real storyline with very tacky writing and a ridiculous narration by the horse.

It's like A Dog's Purpose but with a horse, so that should give you an idea of the formula.

Its purpose is only to be another title to increase the Disney+ catalog… Expand

While pretending to sing the praises of the wild nature, the film tames her in a manipulative function. "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?" (Pollack 1969).

Black Beauty is a beautiful remake of an old classic. The power of love between human and animal is so well portrayed in this film. Cinematography is spectacular, and the story is really moving.
