Product Description:
Deep in the heart of the highest and most remote mountain range are the home and hiding place for the legendary Silver Stallion. The Ranchers tell stories about the silver ghost horse, that has led them on wild chases, half seen but never captured. For one man (Russell Crown), the desire to capture the silver stallion has become an obsession, and he will stop at nothing to tame the wild beast. Told through the words of a mother as she writes page-py-page entertainment for her horse- crazy daughter.

In the mountainous high country above the Australian bush, wild horsesrun free: Australians call them wild "brumbies." Author Elyne Mitchell's book, The Silver Brumby, on which this movie is based, is about a magnificent silver stallion, Thowra. The story opens on a dark and stormy night in the high country. Elyne (Caroline Goodall), spins a tale to comfort her daughter, Indi (Ami Daemion). The beautiful mare, Bell-Bell, gives birth to Thowra, an exceptional cream-colored foal, with a mane and tail that gleam silver in the moonlight. We see Thowra grow up through several seasons. Winter has its hardships; the herds of horses find survival difficult in the snow-packed mountains. But summer may be even more dangerous, for that's when men return to the high country to try to catch the brumbies and cruelly break them of their wildness. For one man (called simply "The Man" in Elyne's story), capturing Thowra, now king of all the brumbies, becomes an obsession. The Man is played by Russell Crowe, whose usual fine acting is enhanced here by impressive horsemanship. The struggle between Thowra and The Man takes on mythic proportions, building to a haunting climax. Gorgeous footage of wild horses running and rearing in the mountains make this the perfect movie for horse-lovers of all ages. We come to care deeply about the fate of these splendid creatures, whose wisdom and passion are rivaled only by their beauty. --Laura Mirsky

Very slow plot.Characters not developed enough.Not enough dialogue.
Love the Man from Snowy River so checked this movie out.But is not comparable at all!Would not watch ever again, not even for the scenary.
Rating: - The Silver Stallion
The Silver Stallion Another boring movie. Not a good example of how horses really interact with humans.
Rating: 
- The Silver Brumby
I first saw this movie when I was nine years old on VHS and was enthralled by it. I have searched for this video since then and to my surprise it came upon me on amazon! This movie is a great movie. My family and I all sat down to watch it and everyone enjoyed it. I give this movie a 4 star because it is not as magical as it was when I was a little girl. This movie is still a wonderful movie!
Rating: - Looking for a good horse story....this is NOT it!
Could not get past the first 15 minutes of this movie.It is just bad. Enough said.
Rating: 
- Delightful
This movie is somewhat different in that the writer takes you back and forth between the real and the imaginary leaving you wondering sometimes as to which is which.It is a delightful story that shares the love between a mother and daughter.It is also fun because the story is told from the perspective of the horse instead of a person.
