This was a film that was fine for its time.

Rating: 8/10 (8 April 2006)

Hmm...this film had good intentions in trying to make peace with the American Indians that we have wronged in the past. The environmental films such as this and Ferngully, the Last Rainforest in the early 1990s also created a sense of being at one with mother nature. This is laughable now as our economy is more important to keep strong.
The music, as with most Disney full-length animated features, is great! Home on the Range is probably the last of these kind of films now that we're all buying into the computer animated age. Both types of animation have their strengths and weaknesses. The full-length animated features that Disney mastered ran from 1937 to 2004. All that is left seems to be sequels that Disney cranks out.
Pocahontas, is indeed overlooked, but it's a period film and no longer is relevant to most of our complex technological culture. Young children under five may find this boring depending on their attention span. A hyperactive child, for example will scope this flick for approximately five minutes. Scooby-Doo cartoons or other fast-paced cartoon action with plenty of colors and happy, friendy characters that don't kill each other are for kids. Emporer's New Groove is a great Disney example for fast-paced fun and exciting times in front of the boob-tube.
