I've seen True Heart on TV and I think it's fine. It is a family movie, and like most of family movies this one tries to give you moral values, and it's fun. It's pretty fine for me. I liked this movie because of the ecological sights and also because it's an innocent movie, good for kids. Kirsten Dunst is great as one of the lost kids in the forest.

The story is about two kids that have a plane accident. The plane crashes in a forest. After they find out the pilot was dead, they meet a native. This native and his friend bear help them to find the way back to civilization, but some hunters want to ruin their plans because they want to kill the bear. It's basically this. I give a 6 out of 10.

The reason True Heart doesn't get a ten is because it does simplify certain situations, which lower the films believability. However, this does not ruin the film, if you are the type of person that doesn't expect life to always show up as black or white. Also, given that young children are a part of its target audience, it makes sense not to make the stories events too involved. Children are great at using their imaginations to fill in the blanks, or at just accepting something at face value. So don't get stuck on the few moments in the film where moments are oversimplified. Instead, let yourself get lost in the amazing, beautiful scenery, and the mystical and magical undertones that leave you feeling inspired and hopeful about life, and the world. Yes, the Native American is slightly stereotyped, but look past that to his modeling of how to embrace, be respectful, patient, compassionate, passionate, reverent, graceful, courageous, kind and caring. As for the children, perhaps the heart on her sleeve, leaping in, openly passionate girl's character is easier to connect with, but the boy's character, with his closely held emotions, quiet passion, cautious - but still open to the world around him - exploration might be more interesting, if you give him a chance. If nothing else, they are a nice complement to each other... a good reminder of how different, yet similar we are as human beings. Go on, watch this film using your child-mind. View it from a place of curiosity, innocence, and imagination. You won't be sorry.

I tuned in and i thought that it was going to be a bad film, but i was miss lead by what i had red about. I have to say that however great an actress Kirsten Dunst is, she seems to have the same type of emotions in every film that she does. I though Zachery Ty Thomas was a great asset to the film and overall it was very enjoyable to watch.

Totally worth watching 8/10

I have actually to this date seen the last half hour of this movie. But let me tell you, the music was just awesome. I loved the voices, and the Indian music. I wish there was a score CD available. A great movie overall!! Kirsten Dunst is great, and pretty

Siblings Bonnie (Kirsten Dunst) and Sam (Zachery Ty Bryan) are flying to Vancouver on a small plane when it crashes. They survive and is found by Khonanesta, a native protector of the bears. He warns them of bad men, poachers out killing bears. He guides them to a nearby logging camp but are constantly hunted by the poachers.

The basic problem is that the poachers have no reason to kill or kidnap the kids at the beginning. The story has to be written better. Khonanesta might be better as a guardian spirit. It's that unreal and it would be more compelling. The poachers don't make sense. Then the cops and parents arrive. Nobody really makes much sense. They barely have a gun between them as they ride into the woods full of armed poachers. The guns always jam as the poachers get mauled by the bear. It's just a lot of bad writing.
