We saw it in 3DImax and loved it! Great movie I thought!
I guess I'm in the minority.....it was OK, saw it in Real 3D, and have the headache to prove it. It was a very pretty film, without much of an original story. But then, maybe there aren't any original stories out there anymore?

I think it was meant to be an archetypal story, a common legend/theme sort of thing. Although as a long time sci fi weenie, I think there ARE still original stories out there. This just wasn't intended to be one of them.
"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks
It was Pocahontas with better special effects and without all the singing.

My dear saw it the other day in 3D and mentioned it was just another hollywood film and ok...
I want to see a heap of foreign films : The White Ribbon, Peaceful Times, Five Munutes of heaven, Amreeka, Max Manus
Good Lord! So people outside of Norway do actually notice Norwegian films from time to time! Cool, I always thought it was just the journalists wanting it to be so...
Max Manus is good as a realistic portrayal of a war "hero", also the negative sides. It's also very good on 40's atmosphere. It's pretty tightly connected to Norways experience of the war, som it might be a bit too insiderish for others. Even though I don't like Aksel Hennie much (he's in every other NOrwegian movie and I'm a bit sick of those souldful eyes...) this is one of his better roles.

Okay....always a day late and a dollar short. Story of my life.
But DH and I just had what could pass as a date night.....dinner and a movie.
We intended to see Avatar in IMAX, but every showing today, except the one at 10:30 this evening, was sold out. So "regular" 3D it was.
I've never seen Pocahontas, but while watching this, all I could think was "OMG...It's "Dances With Wolves" set in the future...not the past."
Think: Wounded soldier, sent to a remote outpost. Sent in among the natives. Learns their ways. Falls in love. Pitched battle against what he used to value.
Wow 7! You're right! I too never saw Pocahontas...
