10th Anniversary Edition finally does justice to underrated classic, 2008-11-09
I always liked this movie, but it seemed over-edited, like there was too much missing. It turns out there was, and with this 10th Anniversary DVD release, Disney finally fixed those problems with storyline and emotional impact, notably with the inclusion of the duet "If I Never Knew You." I hadn't seen this movie since the VHS release, which didn't look good: the bright colors bled into each other on tape. Apparently, the earlier DVD release wasn't that great, either. But THIS release shows just how gorgeous this film really is: the colors are simply amazing, and the widescreen shows how striking the background art is (the design for the forest scenes reminds me of "Sleeping Beauty," with a lot of vertical/horizontal contrast used.) br / br /Too much was made of the historical liberties taken with this film at the time of its release during the politically correct Nineties. It's not a documentary, it's a Disney movie: get over it and enjoy the story. br / br /There is the usual light comedy provided by animal friends and minor characters. The villain is unlikable, but not really demonic or anything, which fits in with this film being more about people's fears and assumptions, and what the British were hoping to find in America versus what was really there. It is true that the characterization in this film isn't quite as deep as in some of the better known Disney classics, but that doesn't detract from the overall quality. I actually find "Pocahontas" to be one of the most poignant Disney movies because it is not a fairy tale, and everything is not perfect in the end. br / br /The music of "Pocahontas" has never gotten much attention, except for the somewhat preachy "Colors of the Wind," but it's always been one of my favorite Disney soundtracks. Native American music provides a strong undercurrent. I especially love "Just around the Riverbend" and "If I Never Knew You," which was always present in the film during the credits. br / br /I have to mention the moment when Pocahontas and John Smith first meet face to face in the mist in front of the waterfall. It's exquisite and unforgettable. br / br /No one can make wonderfully animated musical movies with heart like Disney, and I really hope that they return to making films like this someday, instead of just those Pixar movies. They're fun, but they're not beautiful like this movie is.

Pocahontas Review, 2008-10-15
My daughter is only four but she liked this. We did have to explain to her about the violent parts, but once she heard that, she was okay with the entire movie.
