Good story

Rating: Null/10 (31 July 2003)

ehhh... im sick of so many people whining about the "historical accuracy" of the film. May I remind you people, that this isnt exactly a biography. not 100% word-by-word accurate, but a movie for CHILDREN.If you want a detailed no-nonsence, truth and nothing but the truth story of Pocohontas, flip on the discovery channel.I think it would be inappropriet for a film by disney to have the hero john smith "raping" a 10 yr old girl.This isnt at all a bad film, and while it may not tell the "accurate" story of what happened, it tells a valuable story about friendship, love, and choosing the right path in life. The characters are not "dull" or "flat" as others have said. John Smith was portrayed as couragious, and brave (for taking the fall for Thomas after he killed Kocooum), and Pocahontas is likeable,and brave for saving John,and stopping the war that would have devestated her people.Im 17, and i still love the movie. The people that complain about it, can't enjoy it because of their lack of imagination.
