Pocahontas

The Bottom Line: Pocahontas remains one of my favorite Disney Animated films because of it's cast of colorful characters and it's even more colorful soundtrack.

Review: Pocahontas premiered in 1995, and it didn’t take long for me to fall in love with this classic. The movie is 81 minutes in length, and has a G rating. I would first, like to put to rest all of the whining, complaining, and otherwise criticism associated ...

Pros: Excellent imagery, music and story

Cons: not historicly accurate

The problem is, it left us wanting to know more about Pocahontas, and that's where we ran into a...

Pros: colorful, fun for kids, great music.

Cons: Not very accurate.

Review: I have to say, I've spent the entire time since this movie came out trying to figure out where the waterfall went. I live about 15 minutes from the settlement and there are no waterfalls like that here. Okay, maybe that is a minor point. But it matters...
