OMFG.... a horse driving a TRAIN for the love of god? that actaully made me almost fall over laughing in my seat. "YOU DONT HAVE ANY HANDS!" and one most not forget, "Poor vets... they never stood a chance........... neither did that horse." and the horse is standing in a FRIGGIN TREE! oh and i almost forgot.. that is the ONLY movies movie ive seen with a voice!

great humour :P and the only film with a voice over deserves the extra 2 stars (would have been 3 without the voice!)
keep up the good work

The ending was messy, and even though it had a horse in a tree, it was bad enough to lose one star.

The whole movie was really bizarre, but hilarious. Save for the confusing ending scene with the 'deaths', still funny. "And you've got a stupid forehead." I wish we had more VAs.

Absloutely... amazing. Fantastic VA work... hillarious plot. I won't spoil the ending, but... it cracked me up. The whole -movie- cracked me up. This is the first movie from the game I've beckoned people into my room to see. Two thumbs up and five stars. I love it!

Hey, cool movie and a good use of staying on theme. The complete lack of a knife fight only elevates this one in my books.

First movie I've seen with voice so far... amazing work with the voices. This was also and really funny movie... first that has actually made me laugh out loud. Amazing, original idea - the best movie I've seen on here so far. Great work!

When i saw the title "Pony Exspress" i really did think this was going to be a serious story about , well... horses and drama but what i got was much better.
i liked the voice overs but... but... i never noticed the lip sync. Overall a really good movie just to sit down and chill to. I loved the horse in the tree alot , also the best diiolouge in that film was "HORSES NOOOOOOOOO!!!"

- Beelzebutt

Oh boy. This movie was hilarious and not only that, but it really whet my apetite for how flexible the movie-making tools really are going to be. I loved the script and having voice-acting, of course, just made it that much classier, although the line, "Animals were never meant to operate a transportation system!" would be just as funny in text or speech. I've been yelling it at the people driving in front of me ever since watching 'The Pony Express'.

Posted on November 9, 2005

the voice acting is what made this movie as good as it was. with subtitles this would've been very average. so everybody go buy microphones now.

And...Well, that's about that!

But i noticed a few goofs, the vets kept on changing, there were different people in the car in the different shots.

More horse-jinx ensue, making me wonder if there is going to be a "Horsey" sub-genre of Movies released soon. I laughed, I cried, I loved how Mr. Cooney attempted to use blooper reel footage of the horse in a tree in the film itself. Bravo!

- Movielover

This is a really good movie for voice acting, more must be done but it shows me what we can do exactly when making movies, I hope to extend the time on movies and perhaps stretch scenes longer. Very piliminary works. I give it four stars.

This felt like a trailer. One word that will help your movies. Length! Flesh it out a bit, give us more. This is now tied with ID5 as the highest quality movie. In my book anyway.

Posted on November 8, 2005
- SeiferA

You HAD a winning film for a second there. You almost HAD IT. Your movie had music and was very comical, but the last moments just didn't make sense. I know, a comedy shouldn't make sense, but I mean in the "...what just happened?" kind. You're on the right track though, and I really did like this movie a lot. But the last parts just killed it quite a bit. I have a feeling your next movie will be great, though, so I look foward to it.

This was not a bad attempt, but in the end the narrative suffers. I just don't "get it". Sorry. Good use of voice over, and good pacing. Other than that, it left me kinda flat and feeling "what was that??".

In the end, it was okay.

An enjoyable experience from start to finish, the voice acting was well done, but the acting seemed lacking...with a bit more work this could have really shined.

BEST MOVIE ABOUR HORSES EVER! The ending was a tad confusing, but im going to assume the train blew up and killed everyone except that bearded man. Why most man play God? Great movie, and awesome voice acting.

Hilarious! A bit awkward and im not quite sure what exactly happened during the later part of the movie, but there were some great lines in there. "A horse was never desinged to operate a transportation system!" won my appeal.

but the idea was not bad at the end....

Posted on November 8, 2005
- XeroHedgehog

A few good laughs here and there, and for a very short film like this, the principle plot is a novel idea. I can't bash the voice acting used in the spoken dialouge, but the writing was a TAD off. Still, it's a very great example of what can be done with the game engine, and I give the movie kudos for that...as a short film, however, it lacks a certain quality I can't quite put my finger on.

Posted on November 8, 2005

Good film, and the first with spoken dialog! (it's worth four stars just for that). Cuts seemed to aggressive in places, but a good effort. Hope I can do as well....

Love the plot, I had to laugh at some of the lines. Not entirely satisfied with how some of the scenes were put together though, the camera work was a bit strange from time to time. And I didn't quite understand the ending. But keep up the good work!

That is pure class, the use of skull props on the burning car at the end was an inspired piece of direction from the 'Rexbox'.

Posted on November 8, 2005
- lanky316

The film was an enjoyable romp. It wasn't the most plot driven title we'll ever see but it wasn't the sort of thing that will constantly be driven down your throats with the same, low quality, bog standard titles. That said there wasn't much sense to it which whilst making it stand out in it's charm, also lets it down. There were points when it just seemed, too random.

A nice little one off title, but please, lets not have any clones or sequals as a one off it's good any more is overkill. 4 stars

That was extremely funny at times. I must say that the line 'You haven't even got any hands' directed at the horse was a highlight. Great voice acting. The story was a little confusing but I think this shows alot of promise for what we will see come outta The Movies. I for one am more excited after seeing this. In a few months it will probably be a 2 star, but as of now, great work.

This was random, but pretty comical. I especially loved the explosion and the skulls sitting on the hood of the car. I thought the funniest part was when the horse ended up in the tree. Nice Job. Just needed to be longer.

Funny, haven't a clue what it was about but it evoked a chuckle. It looked more like a trailer than a movie though. I'll give it two stars cause it actually made me want to know where it was going. If it was meant to be a trailer for a comedic thriller, kudos, when do we get to see the actual movie?

Posted on November 7, 2005

Not lip synching?Oh well.....That was hilarious! HORSES! Horses are piloting the train?....It was so random that you have to laugh!

Posted on November 7, 2005
- CrazyChris

What begins as an enjoyable, funny and interesting story, turns halfway into a disappointing and ridiculous film. The voice acting is solid so great work there, the sound and music throughout decent. The cinematography isn�??t at all inspiring but tells the story, or lack there or well enough.

The best bet here would be to cut the second half of the film and start that again, the ending aside from making no sense, just isn�??t funny. In the spirit of bad jokes�?��?�what a train wreck.

They say wile them in the end, this film just doesn�??t.

Hollywood is a strange place, where often times, one will rub their eyes, scratch their heads, and wonder just how the hell some films get the green-light. Pony Express, just happens to be one of those films.

Not a bad movie per say, just very flaky in actual execution. Director Tid Cooney, obviously had a reason behind directing this film, but that message, is quite unclear at times. On one side, you have quirky humor, and a very played out joke, and on the other, a message about humans playing God.

Unfortunately, despite the films overall scope and fantastic soundtrack, and good acting, by the end of this rather short production, one will feel as if, the film was either rushed, or never finished. The unexplained explosion of the Vet's car, their deaths, and more to the point, how the hell a horse could get stuck in a tree.

Apparently we are to belive that in the year 2005, horses will not only be used in strange experiments in transportation, but that they can withstand the full force of an apparent explosion, and being thrown from a train, into a tree.

A final note, that suggests that this film may have never been fully realized, is near the begining, when a character calls the vets, if you look to the side, you will notice that the train is not outside, but rather inside, and the outside view is a shot of the local subway in New York.

So while the film tries, it ultimately fails at delivering an unforgettable experience. It comes off as a comedy, a drama, and a hidden social message at the same time, and doesn't convey any of those, to any real extent.

Original premise -- that made me laugh. The third act was a bit rushed and confusing, however. All in all, it was enjoyable and provided an interesting vision.

I'd say five stars because it's a stupid movie... but in a good way, stupid like Spaceballs, it's so stupid it's funny... good work, although the animation of the horse in the tree wasn't great...

The idea was humorous and we certainly can't call it unoriginal I'd believe, but as others have mentioned it felt somewhat incomplete. However, it got enough of a laugh out of me to warrant giving 3 stars. Good effort.

This movie is a two or three line joke (used at the beginning) that is extended into a deplorable 2-minute movie. Disconnected, attempting at several points to stab a little bit of humor at standard doomsday/action movies, it fails even at that not particularly difficult goal. The voice acting is the only good part of it, and is surprisingly good for a movie that is so bad.

I can only conclude these films were rated in reverse order, as this is definately the worst one by far. The only reason that it has probably been succesful so far, is the fact it used speech instead of sub titles.

This is the debut movie of rexbox; a Big Fish in Hollywood. Tid Cooney, a new Director, is rumoured to be a rather funny fellow with a big affection for animals. Especially in 1980 this might have turned out an utter disaster. Luckily for rexbox it didn't.

From a technical point of view the movie is a success. They use interesting camera angles and the latest technology. I presume they must have used a rubber horse for the famous scene on the beach, which must be one of the highlights of the movie. Also the sequence on board of the train, with an unnamed girl with pink hair and a mobile phone with a similar colour (is it pink or salmon?) is unquestionable the funniest moment in the whole movie.

The voice acting was decent - at least all the actors were understandable and there were some really quirky accents and intonations. I can appreciate the choice of music too, makes me feel at ease while watching.

All in all a good movie, but there are so many questions left to answer. Like what did the horses do on the train? It would also have been nice to know a little more about the characters, especially the girl in pink we�??d love to have performed another sequence.

This is a nice, funny little movie with interesting experiments, but lacking in plot and consistency. Very good though, for a debut movie, of a new studio and rather virgin-like director.

I liked the bit where he says "you haven't even got any hands!" It reminds me of that photoshop of the dog wearing the mailman's shoes, and the mailman's like "give those back! you're a dog, they don't even fit!"

But uh, other than that it felt very disjointed and confusing.

Director Cooney's freshman feature is a bizzare opus to a novel concept. The script is fresh and original, but the many twists and turns the plot takes may leave audience members baffeled as to where Cooney was heading with this.

This movie makes you think, but I couldn't understand it. It was a movie that was good for a short. The good thing about it was they didn't show the horses. This is a bunch of crap and it's so stupid, but I gave it two stars anyways.

This film portrays effectively the danger of lax 'vetting' procedures within transportation employment standards. Unfortunately, although every care was taken to prevent danger to the horses, it seems a miracle that the dog travelling with the vets was not injured.

The special effects in this ground breaking movie are second to none. An interesting social commentary I think we can all learn from. The animatronic horse were particularly lifelike and held up to close scrutiny. Apparently, the DVD version will have an extra 17 hours of deleted scenes.

This is a riveting documentary about seemingly ordinary commuters knocked to smithereens by unexpected events. Filmed in lovely colors on authentic American locales, "Pony Express" shimmers fitfully with varied beauties.

However, though Cooney sticks faithfully to this film's original inspiration, it cheats its audience utterly where the historical realities of the day are concerned. Even if (as is very likely) you choose to take a much less cynical view than me, I urge you strongly to view with a speculating eye.
