I really like this movie despite its flaws. The music is fantastic, and I like Pocahontas as a character. She was the first Disney protagonist to end a film with choosing to be APART from the romantic lead, instead staying with her tribe in order to help her people.

Oh I know, but the movie is not as bad as people usually make it out to be. If anything, I think one of the problems, is the story feels too rushed because of the time frame. Perhaps if the film was longer this problem would have been less prominent. I would have loved to see the characters more fleshed out, especially our lead characters like Animat mentioned.

I personally adore Pocahontas. It's easily in my top 5 favorite Disney movies. As you pointed out, the animation is so freaking stunning, and the music is beautiful. I always ball my eyes out at the end not only because of Pocahontas and John Smith parting ways, but also because of the score. My grandmother also sang Colors of the Wind to me as a baby. So, this movie and its music has a bit of a personal value to me. But other than that, I really do love the message of Pocahontas and John Smith's love. How they were able to bring together two different cultures, and defy the odds so they could be together. They're a powerful couple, and so underrated. I'm so happy that you didn't beat this movie into a pulp like some other reviewers have. True, this isn't as great as The Lion King or Zootopia, but I feel like it deserves more attention. What it does well, like the animation and music, is REALLY done well.

I guess my biggest issue with this movie is not necessarily because of the specific huge historical inaccuracies. Rather, it's because it takes a very complex and sad history and essentially treats like it was all because of one greedy guy looking for gold, and that it's all magically fixed when said greedy guy gets defeated. The real history of the interactions between the Native Americans and Europeans is much more complicated, sad, and messy than that, and it deserved a better representation. I do definitely think Disney meant well with this one. The animation is beautiful, and I love Colors of the Wind. And I do give Disney some credit for trying to present a message of tolerance, and for trying to treat the Powhatan more as actual people. Unfortunately, good intentions don't always translate to good results. Disney did a much better portraying prejudice and tolerance in Zootopia. And when you throw in some of the general story issues, like the tone issue, and some of the character issues to the pile, you've got yourself a movie I don't generally look back on as one of my favorites.

I totally get your point but it's weird : even as a kid I knew this movie was just a tiny hint on what actually happened. Like, I knew it was re-written to be seen by children, just to give them a tiny bit of the feeling to understand the bigger deal. I wasn't the smartest kid, it was more of an instinct thing (or maybe my mum just whispered "they actually slaughtered them all"?). I'll always love dearly that movie, my favourite Disney maybe, for making me think about/ understand many things about the world, differences leading to fear and hatred ... And also for showing me that, hell, your place in the world isn't related to a man you fell for.

Any information gleaned from a movie with talking trees and animal sidekicks should be taken with a grain of salt. "Pocahontas" was twelve (no romance) in 1607, and Smith's story about her rescuing him during his captivity was first mentioned in a letter to Queen Anne years later; likely a case of stretching the truth to put in a good word for her before her audience. The real Captain Ratcliffe actually caused supply shortages for the colonists by overtrading with the natives trying to maintain good relations with them. In 1609, he was invited by the Powhatan to trade and was ambushed and captured. He was tied to a stake and slowly skinned bottom to top with mussel shells, being burned alive after having the skin stripped from his face. Pocahontas chose to stay with the colonists following her capture in the first Anglo-Powhatan War, renouncing her father for not returning prisoners and captured arms in exchange for her. The movies actually did get people talking about the real history, but there will always be those who believe what they saw in a cartoon or come up with their own "truth" to fill in the blanks.

This is by far the best review for Pocahontas I have ever seen. So many people have criticized it for not being historically accurate (even though Disney animators have specifically said that they based this film off of the "legend" that surrounded the historic account. Not the actual event) instead of looking at it from a technical perspective. It really grinds my gears that critics criticized this film for historically inaccurate (even though it's based off of the legend that surrounded the historic account) but then turn around and praise other historically inaccurate films like Argo and Anastasia. But overall, I can't praise this review enough. To quote Jafar: "On a scale from one to ten, you are an eleven"👏👏👏
@alihijazi8583

Even worse, at least Pocahontas has on its poster "An American Legend Comes to Life " whereas Anastasia had on its poster "Discover the Adventure behind the Greatest Mystery of Our Time", which means Anastasia is blatantly faking reality whereas Pocahontas is just based on a legend. And Argo is one of the worst and most inaccurate movies ever and extremely Islamophobic

BACKGROUND: "Pocahontas" marked an earthshaking change in Disney leadership. Jeffery Katzenberg left Disney during production to join Stephen Spielberg in forming DreamWorks. Some loyal Disney workers who admired Katzenberg thought he would actually come back. However, that boat had sailed. DreamWork's "The Prince Of Egypt" and "Shrek" came afterwards. And, this split from Disney fostered intense and renewed competition that revitalized animation. "Renewed" competition? The whole "divorce" to form a fierce competition... felt similar to many years earlier.., when Don Bluth split from Disney and made "The Secret Of NIMH" with his own company. At this earlier time, Spielberg had also made an impact when he then subsequently worked with Bluth on the original features, "An American Tail" and "The Land Before Time".... ...Yup.... Stephen Spielberg was the "Wild Card"....

Although I am nit willing to put Pocahontas on my list of my favorite Disney movies, I do wish this movie would be getting more attention. With how much popularity it used to have back in the Disney Renaissance, it should be just as popular today as The Little Mermaid and the Lion King. Besides, when I watched this as part of my Disney research, there were some parts I actually liked. For example, I actually like the child parts of the story better. They look like they would entertain children perfectly, and it looks like they would be nice relief from all the adult material. But I will say I am also relieved that the adult parts don't go too far with their scariness. I even have a liking to Pocahontas herself. She has so much compassion for her tribe and her animal friends that it actually frightened me when she said she would die if John Smith died. I legitimately wanted her to survive for the whole movie and I wanted her to have a happy ending. This made me somewhat sad when John Smith had to leave. Do I like this movie as much as Pinocchio or The Lion King? No. Do I wish this movie could get more attention? Most definitely.

Ratcliffe, in the movie, wants secretly to become lord (or king, I don't really know). But in reality, he was sent with his crew to trade with the Powhatans, but they were too generous and started to starve. The Powhatans, seeing their fate occurring, wanted to offer them some corn, but they captured Ratcliffe, tied him to a pole, started to burn him and took parcels of his skin with mussel shells. Then he died. Happy, now?

What? No Seal of Approval? But otherwise, good review as usual, AniMat. I can sing any song from this movie and one of the songs from the sequel (yes, I actually like the sequel). The only thing I remotely didn't like about this movie was the tree. Not only did it make no sense to have a talking tree, but she was more annoying than the gargoyles from The Hunchback of Notre Dame. The only scene I liked with her was when she gives Lon and Ben the slip, but even then I'm laughing at Lon and Ben, not the tree. Also, this is one of my favorite Disney lines:WIGGINS: Do you think we'll meet some savages?RATCLIFFE: If we do, we shall be sure to give them a proper English greeting.WIGGINS: Gift baskets!RATCLIFFE: And he came so highly recommended.

More of a gem than a classic. A hidden gem of a Disney film that is only hidden by the Disney films that came before it like Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Lion King and even Rescuers Down Under was stunning and that sequel film is more of a hidden gem than Pocahontas. Definitely not a bad film by any means, also there was Hunchback of Nontradame, Hercules, Mulan and even Tarzan that ended off the Disney Renaissance period of the 90s. Pocahontas is perhaps the middle of the second golden period for Disney films and if it was released in the 80s or even during the 70s it would have been better remembered.

Lion King is actually pretty close to Hamlet in the places where it matters most. With the European/native relationships you can't really make a movie out of it because it's incredibly complicated. They were dominated by tribal and European politics. Many of both the natives and the Europeans were more interested in fighting their rivals than fighting each other. For example the greatest massacres of natives happened during the beaver wars which were a series of large raids done by the Iriqious to gain hunting grounds because of the extremely lucrative fur trade. The Dutch supported it because they were the main traders while the French opposed it as many of the tribes overrun where their allies. The French were also major competitors to the Dutch in the fur trade so the Dutch handed out as many guns as the Iriqious wanted. This even came to clashes between the French and the Iriqious directly as the war went on all around the great lakes until the Iriqious had taken the whole area and more. These wars and the massive amount of land that was easily taken by the seemingly primitive Indians made the British population impatient and really wanting to expand into the now very sparsely populated Iriqious territory. However the British government had no interest in getting involved so it said "no" and when the war of Spanish succession began and Britain put heavy taxes on the Americans to pay for it that boiled over. Americans weren't happy that they were supposed to support British wars in Europe (Which they had no voice or stake in) yet Britain would refuse to allow them to even fight their own war to gain territory that was basically up for grabs and that would likely be taken by the French, Dutch or Spanish if they didn't move quickly. So the interactions between natives and Europeans is extremely complicated.

"I wonder if they even bleed!" Well they were right. Nobody bled in this film. The only thing that kept this movie G at the time was the fact that there was no blood. This film was worse than any modern PG rated film! Moana should switch ratings with Pocahontas!

Just saw it for the first time. I actually liked it more than Lion King. But I am a big fan of some of the classic Disney artwork, and this reminded me a lot of Sleeping Beauty. I also noticed that they had put in a bit effort in the historical feel here.

That "get rich quick" thing is actually an American thing after it became independent. Most governors at the time were more concerned with getting knighted or promoted to nobility rather than money so they would make big agreements with the natives or destroy other nation's ships.

I still really enjoyed this movie and all of it’s memorable songs; but I can see his point of how it goes from silly for children to serious for adult, and it’s a good thing they didn’t do the real life story of “Pocahontas” because from what I heard that would not be ‘Disney’ worthy or kid friendly at all. PS; I didn’t enjoy the sequel at all, sorry if you did.

Versipellis the rogue Changeling It depends on what you like to watch. The story has been done many times before, the characters are generic, but it does get intense at times and the art direction is some of the best I've seen. For me personally, visuals matter a lot more than for other people, so I appreciated this film on an artistic standpoint, but if you aren't like that, yeah, it would probably be a bore.

Pocahontas is by far my favorite Disney film. I love the songs, I love the characters, the animation, the way they show the racism on BOTH sides instead of just strictly demonizing white people the entire time. Everything about it is fantastic. I honestly have absolutely no criticism to give it.

AniMat while I understand why you didn't as it was cut, too bad you didn't mention the song 'If I Never Knew You' This is my 2nd most favorite Disney song of all time (Transform from Brother Bear is number 1), and the 2nd most underrated IMHO (1st being Good Company from Oliver and Company), yet its a very close 2nd place finsh in both categories (also has been or might be again number 1) It's a duet that means so much about how happy you are to know someone special while your dying in this messed up world (War in Syria, Climate Change, etc) and their love for you for knowing you. Both of your lives are better, not worse, to have met instead of otherwise. This love song is aussome and such a shame it got cut and downplayed. So while I hold no hate to you AniMat, it is a disappointment you also gave it the pass. Oh well.

This movie is not my favorite Disney movie. I mean it does have its good parts and I'm not saying it's the worst, but knowing about the real story of Pocahontas does kind of make it difficult to like the story. I'm not saying that other people shouldn't like this story it's okay if you like it as long as you know the real story of Pocahontas.
