This is an entertaining family movie, with gorgeous scenery and wonderful native music throughout. While the plot gets a little far-fetched in spots, it is still fun to watch. Kirsten Dunst turned in a terrific performance, and the subtle moral lesson is an added bonus.
My only real problem with this movie is the repeated reference to the Kodiak. This movie takes place in British Columbia, Canada, but the Kodiak Bear (a sub-species of the Brown or Grizzly Bear) is only found on the isolated Kodiak Island, Alaska.

Kirsten was 15 when she starred in this and shows her acting chops at this tender age. Great Canadian scenery is the real "star' and makes one wonder how they hauled all the rigs thru those mountains! A feel-good story with a feel-good ending. So, why not just enjoy it with your claws withdrawn. The Native actor, Mister August Schellenberger (he's half Mohawk), has a resume as long as the Empire State building is tall....and just as impressive. R.I.P., sir! A well-spent 90-somethng minutess....entertaining, for that's what movies are s'posed to do = entertain, eh, wot?
This one of the best movies that I have seen in a long time. I recommend it for anyone that loves the wild life and I would say that it is a good movie for kids. The music is great wish that I could get the sound track. Know how I can get it?
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.

Anchored by the performance of Kirsten Dunst and Zachary Ty Bryan, this plucky tween adventure provides solid after school thrills, with a good dollop of lessons on top. Lost in the wilderness, two kids find adventure, becoming involved in an illegal poaching scandal. Might provide nostalgia for kids raised during this era, and should still play well for current generations. Adults aren't apt to find a great deal to latch upon. Nice, but not much more. Never really lands where it aims. 5/10.
Did you know
- GoofsWhen the two kids cut themselves loose from a rope tying them back-to-back to a tree, it's obvious that they could have easily wriggled free from under the rope. It was loosely wrapped around them as they sat with their backs to the tree, nothing else was tied, not their hands or feet, so they could have easily gotten out from under it.
