Title: Wasn't what I expected
Product review: The good: the cinematography was (for the most part) beautiful.The bad: The abrupt scene changes remind me of raw footage and is distracting. I understand there's an artistic element here, but when people's lines nearly get cut off, it's annoying. The voice overs were difficult to hear without turning up the volume. Must everything be whispered?The pet peeves: Colin seemingly has one expression: furrowed brow and darting eye. Pocahontas' native dress reminded me of a porno version of what Native Americans might wear: off the shoulder and mini skirt. The soundtrack repeated so often that it become a sort of nightmare. Pocahontas spent way too much time running through the tall grass.Summary: This movie really let me down. I had hoped for an epic film about the new world; instead, I had to watch a sketchy, rather abstract picture of a love affair between Smith and Pocahontas. This movie does not make my list of "watch agains."
