Disney's direct-to-video sequel to their 1995 hit places Pocahontas in harm's way in London, where she is almost tossed into jail and has some other mishaps. She's not alone, however: a cute raccoon named Meeko does a nice job as the obligatory funny animal. The songs are about as memorable as those in the first film, but the art and animation maintain far higher standards than most animated sequels dumped onto tape. If you don't drive yourself nuts thinking about the appalling historical revisionism at work here, this is passable family entertainment. --Tom Keogh

WORST EVER (2004-05-13)  This movie was soooo BORING!!!!! Well okay it was ok at the beginning but near the end I was thinking to myself "I'll only like this movie if she chooses John Smith!" And guess what? SHE DIDNT!!!!! GRRRR it makes me heartbroken! I looved the Lion King 2, Peter Pan 2, and Aladdin 3 (Aladdin 2 was reeeally bad heheh) and I havnt seen any other sequals unless you count Fantasia 2000 which I think doesnt seem like a sequal at all, more like a whole new movie! But back to Pocahontas... I LOOOOOVED JOHN SMITH!!! I know that the person I borrowed this movie from is only keeping it to expand her disney collection... (she has probably almost all of them) and if Ariel can see Eric once, fall in love, take some time off and finally come up with a plan to see him again (which, when you think about it, must take some time for the movie to progress and such) She still loves him and marries him BUT WHAT ABOUT JOHN SMITH????? IT'S ALMOST THE SAME!!!!!! DONT RENT THIS MOVIE!!!!!! SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!!
RUBBISH ENDING!!!!!!!!!!!! (2004-05-08)  this movie was rubbish from the start and had a spactacularly rubbish ending. the animation wasnt up to much. it loored like they had taken the original charaters from the first movie and melted them! all the walt disney "classics" have all had their own style. ie. the lion king had very pricisely drawn figures and was done in bright colours. pocahontas was made of more subtle colours and had a slightly abstract feel about the charcters. in this movie, the drawings just melted into the style of all teh other recent, rubbish disney sequals, nothing special or significant, the sort of animation taht can make you feel sick after watching it to long. this movie didnt quite reach the stage of making me naucious but it very easily could have if it was drawn with a few more of the really rubbish "pictures". the voices were all different, allthough that might not have been disneys fault.it only had about 3 songs in it and all them sounded like the writen had written them in his/her sleep! allthough im not sure if the hole ball thing was actually a reference to hitory (i suspect not)i think that was completely FAKE and unrealistic. and since when has pocahontas been able to speak english?!? i know that in the first movie she and john smith could speak in the same languge but 1) you dont know what language that is 2)that was only because the tree did something weird.was it js me or did pocahontas look completely hidious for a cartoon in this movie?everyone was SO(...) mean to the little dog (what was his name?!?). pocahontas was hugin meeko all the time but she ignored the dog untill the end. meeko was just evil to the dog, apart from in the rare occasions that he was being sweet to the dog. bt i will admit that meeko (and the dog, and, yes, evan flit) was sooooooooooooo CUTE!finally, the RUBBISH ending. firstly, pocahontas rejects john smith, who is like, the love of her life(in the first movie anyway)!!!!!! he was completely cool with it as well. she was like "we walked the same path once, but no i know my place." and he was like "i hope you find happiness." ok. im 13 and i definately know that my boyfriend isnt long term but evan if HE rejected me like that i would proabl slap him. and john smith was like THE LOVE OF HER LIFE. and then, to make it worse, she went with that pathetic excuse for an animated character JOHN ROLFE who had an unaturally posh accent anf "falls in love with him". THAT WAS W(...)-R(...)-O(...)-N(...)-G(...).!(...)and john smith was SO(...) SWEET to her throughout the entire movie. one of the fisrt things he said to her were "ive though about you every day!" that was soo sweet. and pocahontas still loved him at the begining.SHE SHOULD HAVE GONE WITH JOHN SMITH!!!!!!! like ive already said THE ENDING WAS WRONG!!!! walt disney movies always have the same two messages "friendship"and"TRUE LOVE"theyre not supposed to be making films about players.this movie is RUBBISH!!!!!!!! save yourself the agony and DONT WATCH IT!!!!
The Worst Movie in the World!!! (2004-03-16)  There's only one word to describe how I feel about this movie: HATE!!! This was probably one of the first Disney sequels I ever saw, and also the worst. Even "The Return of Jafar" was better than this one, and that's saying alot!! I can't believe she ditched John Smith. It just dosn't make any sense. Mr. Rolphe isn't very outstanding either. Though they never show it in this movie (I don't think), there is a little bit of a historical record in it. Pocahontas DID marry John Rolfe. She went back to London with him and became a Christian. About 2 years later she died of a disease. I have this sense of knowing when a movie is bad from the very beginning. After Flit smashes into that flower painting I knew this would be a bad movie; and it is!! I finally had to sell this movie to forget about it forever. Thankfully, I can now watch the first Pocahontas in peace, without worry. :) So please, don't waste your money on this garbage. Buy a good, decent film instead. Like Finding Nemo....
Why I hate this movie (Part III) (2004-02-14)  I'm sorry and I know that I can't shut up about this movie, but I can't. It is probably the worst movie I've ever seen and that's saying a LOT! A few more things: If you haven't read my other reviews on this movie, please do, because they say a lot! Rolfe is hella ugly whereas Smith is the dashing explorer! I was embarrased for Pocahontas because she acted like a moron with her love life! Since when do people care about animated movies being historically correct. As if Poca1 was perfect. I say if you're gonna make it, ya might as well go all the way! This movie not only shames itself, Pocahontas, and Disney, but also makes it slightly painful to watch the wonderful first movie. This movie was directed towards kids and since when do they care if it's historically correct?!!? My younger cousins hated this movie, because they liked Smith. I think that kids are more satisfied and concerned with Pocahontas and Smith being in love than the educational value of this movie. If people always watched movies for information, then there'd be a major problem. since when does Disney care about being informative?!!? I hate that jerk Rolfe!!!!! I own the movie and soundtrack for the first movie and they're both amazing. I hate the second movie and soundtrack! Don't watch this movie. Pocahontas and John Smith were two of my favorite disney characters ever and this makes me sad. I wish I had never seen the second one. IT IS PROBABLY MY LEAST FAVORITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME! Don't watch this!!!!!!!!
Horrible movie don't watch it (Part II) (2004-02-14)  Okay so I know I left a few things out. Here's some other stuff that totally sucks about this movie: They make John Smith out to be a total jerk just so that you like Rolfe better. I LOVED Smith! Rolfe is the worst Disney character ever. Again, I say, is Pocohantas just supposed to throw away her relationship with Smith after the first movie?!!? That's the worst thing about this movie and makes me sad every time I watch the original movie. What the heck happened to everything that they had in the first movie?!!? The first movie was heartwarming and I LOVED to watch it when I was a little kid. Had I been that same age when this movie came out, then I think I would've cried! Smith was really cool and I liked how he loved Pocohontas for who she was and not that she was willing to become "civilized". Rolfe didn't really like her until she dressed up like a English woman (which, I add, made her look completely hideous). I'm not even going to try to compare the music. The first movie's music was great and really catchy. Some of the sequel's songs seemed like they were thought of when the composer just woke up. And the original's soundtrack is great. I still listen to it every once in a while. The sequel's music sucks! I'm not even going to try to compare "Which way do I go" or whatever it's called to, say, "Colors of the Wind". "Which way do I go" was apparently what the director was thinking while making this movie. I can't express how much I hate John Rolfe. In the first movie, they make John Smith a dashing, young, adventurous, understanding man, who loves Pocohontas for who she is and not what she's willing to do to please him. But in the second, he now becomes a complete jerk who just walks away when Pocohontas is with Rolfe. I think a lot of Rolfe's support is backed by the animals who liked Smith in the first movie but now think that Rolfe is best for her. Meeko and Flit were supposed to be funny, like they were in the first movie, but now they're stupid and boring. This movie was extremely boring. No more can be said about that. The other characters were obnoxious. King James, for example, is a two-dimensional freak who reminds me of Ratcliffe's servant person in the first movie. Skinny and frail and doesn't have a clue about what's going on. EVERYONE'S OUT OF CHARACTER! That's just a few more points for ya. This movie doesn't just ruin itself, but also it almost makes me mad sometimes when I watch the first one (only not really, because the first one is great!) In short, a movie worthy of your lowliest trash can.
