I didn't like the first new Flicka film, although daughter who had not seen the original, or read the book, loved it. Missed out on 2 and watched No 3 yesterday with my grandson, who shouteed Mummy ther is a horse film on tv come and watch it with me. Indoctrination begins early. The film was nice but not outstanding; sort of a cross Heartland/Saddle Club. Nice easy viewing. Zane loved it and has decided he wants to be an eventing rider, jumping horses over all sorts of ffences. It was fun to watch with him as he is shouting "Don't hit it horsie, lift yourself over." Cheers, Vera

Cheers, Vera Love it! Zane is a real character! I havent seen any of the new Flicka films. I keep meaning to set up a film club 'compare and contrast' with the new one and the original but never quite get round to it. If anyone thinks its a good idea give me a kick up the bum and I'll arrange it.

Good idea, it would be interesting. I am old enough to have had a crush on Roddy McDowell!

Have set up a thread - not sure how I'll fit 2 polls in one but maybe I'll think of something. I can lend copies to anyone who would like to borrow them.

Can't seem to find the new one, yet I felt sure Ihad it, or else perhaps I watched it on TV - you might have to lend me that one Claire. In exchange I can lend Thunderhead in his NON pinto form, and GGofW( not in the same league in any way as the first two films = done completely differently.)
Claire if I sent them to you could you er, breed a few more of them?? ;D

Lol kunuma yep an expert at breeding Actually its perfectly legal to make back up copies of your own DVDs! Will defo do a swap. I havent got a copy of the 3rd film tho. Better start looking for the films now as I havent got round to sorting my DVDs out yet, they are in a bit of a jumble.

Watching Flicka 2 right now. Should be doing housework but any excuse. Not keen on US films, or books for that matter. In the TV series Flicka was chestnut with a blaze, wasn't she? Or am I having another senior moment?

I've got a free trial of that new on-line streaming film service from Sky and Flicka 3 is one of the films available - so I may have a little looksee.

Hi all just watched this last night. Have made it the subject of my first ever film review on my ponymadbooklovers blog. If anyone is interested in reading the review link below, and please leave comments there if you have any! ponymadbooklovers.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/film-review-flcka-3-country-pride.htmlI agreed in the most part with Vera's view of the film. Oh and yes as the review states Flicka WAS changed in colour from the original!
