Review of Horse Girl (2020) by Vestingboot — 07 Feb 2020

To be completely honest this movie could be amazing if it would have stuck to a few of the subplots within it. Horse Girl is one movie that I don't know who its intended for. I came into this movie with the hope that it would keep me interested but it's story and cringe inducing moments make me want to look away.

The acting however done by Allison Brie, Debby Ryan,and John Reynolds is fantastic. Brie makes you believe her character's utter confusion with the many weird happenings to herself. Debby Ryan's portrayal of a roommate helping the other is well done.

John Reynolds did a fantastic job as Darren and to be honest I wish we saw more of him than we did. The movie isn't bad, but it's just so confusing it makes watching the movie a chore which isn't something you want.

The movie has moments that make me want to live in them, the Baker's Dozen scene is extremely entertaining with the banter that goes back and forth with the characters. The scene with Brie's friend Heather was great and I wish that would have been further shown.

If I were to categorize this movie it wouldn't be thriller, it's more in the vein of a drama that airs on the side of Psychological and disturbing. The movie is definitely on the low tier of movies I have seen and I wouldn't recommend it, but who knows maybe I'm missing the genius behind the film and it's fantastic for others.
