A weak offering by Disney

Rating: 4/10 (10 May 2020)

Pocahontas was meant to be the film that Disney, particularly Jeffery Katzenberg, hoped would earn an animated film a Best Picture Oscar. But it ended up marking the decline of the Disney Renaissance. What was delivered was a decently animated film that was surprisingly short for a theatrical release and as expected a Disneyfied version of history. I liked the song "Savages", being an imposing song about the upcoming war: but it was mostly a dull lifeless offering from Disney.
