Pocahontas

(U)

Capt. John Smith (Mel Gibson) leads a rag-tag band of English sailors & soldiers to the New World to plunder its riches for England (or, more precisely, for Governor Ratcliffe (David Ogden Stiers), who comes along for the ride). Meanwhile, in this "New World," Chief Powhatan (Russell Means) has pledged his daughter, Pocahontas (Irene Bedard her sing voice is by Judy Kuhn), to be married to the village's greatest warrior. Pocahontas, however, has other ideas. She has seen a vision of a spinning arrow, a vision she believes tells her change is coming. Her life does indeed change when the English ship lands near her village. Between Ratcliffe, who believes the "savages" are hiding the gold he expected to be plentiful, and Powhatan, who believes these pale newcomers will destroy their land, Smith and Pocahontas have a difficult time preventing all-out war, and saving their love for each other.

Christian Bale, Lind Hunt, Danny Mann, Billy Connolly, Joe Baker, Frank Welker.

This movie is a really great for children. The movie is a classic, it has some comedy in it from the sidekick pals Meeko (John Kassir) the Meerkat. The songs are the making of this movie it just wouldn't be the same without them. If you have young children this this is a must watch. All in all a great movie for children.
