Has anyone seen this movie?

IMDB: The New World

I think it came out in limited theaters back in November sometime, but only recently nationwide(?). At any rate, it is the Pocahontas story, and supposedly pretty close to the true events (although I guess no one is exactly sure what those are). If I remember correctly, Ebert gave it 4 stars. I am very interested! I love historical movies, even if they aren't exactly true to life. But it has not come to theaters here because we are so small. If you have seen it, please let me know what you think!

I wish I could post an actual review for you however I have not yet seen this movie nor had I even heard of it before your post. I did watch the trailer and teaser this morning and it seems like it is going to be a pretty cool movie. You can watch the trailers and teasers here if anyone is interested. I am guessing that if it originally hit theatres in November we should be able to find it on DVD very soon. I will check my blockbuster online account and see if it is in the list yet.

Captain Smith is spared his mutinous hanging sentence after captain Newport's ship arrives in 1607 to found Jamestown, an English colony in Virginia. The initially friendly natives, who have no personal property concept, turns hostile after a 'theft" is "punished" violently on the spot. During an armed exploration, Smith is captured, but spared when the chief's favorite daughter Pocahontas pleads for the stranger who soon becomes her lover and learns to love their naive 'savage" way of harmonious life.

I saw the extended version which means it was even longer than what others may have seen of what is already considered a lengthy film. The extended version is almost three hours long but in those three hours you are thoroughly immersed into the world and story. The ability to capture magnificent scenes and perspectives is the best part of this film, you feel as though you are really there. This film feeds on love, honor, commitment and sadness. Depending on how you look at it you will have a different feeling but only a more mature minded person will thoroughly enjoy it.

I loved this movie as well. I think it captures the wilderness in its purity as best as can be done on screen. I wasn't sure about the relationships between the girl and two men... It was a bit weird for me because they didn't talk much mostly just looked at each other.
