The New World (DVD)

What it's about: The old story of Pocahantas, or if you prefer the drama of English explorer John Smith and how things turned wrong with the native American in the 17th century.

What I thought of it: Well... uuuh... mmmhh... I watched it all the way, thought it might pick up, but it never really did. If you like a slow pace, narrated type of movie this is the movie for you! Must say that the photography was amazing. It's interesting, but let's just say I'm VERY happy I didn't see it in the theatre.

The girl that plays Pocahantas (Q'Orianka Kilcher) is very good, and as for Mr. Colin Farrell, well... he's equal to himself, and I could almost smell him just by the way he looked. That "not so clean" period-look really works for him.
