In April 1607, three English ships sail to North America to establish a cultural and economic foothold. Shackled below decks is rebellious John Smith, to be hanged for insubordination as soon as they reach land. But instead he is freed by the captain, who knows — as the colonists will soon discover — that surviving in this wilderness will require the services of every able-bodied man — particularly one of Smith's abilities.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: B+
"The New World is almost like reading a long, descriptive novel. It isn't really a film for the masses weaned on the entertaining, roller-coaster action of King Kong or the manic relationship entanglements of Wedding Crashers."
Austin American-Statesman: 4 of 5 stars
"...a long, important-feeling film constructed of dichotomies. It is both understated and overly stately. It contains both lyric restraint and grand strokes."
The Palm Beach Post: C
"Shot on location and without the use of artificial lighting, this is surely the most authentic rendering of the first meeting of the English and the Native Americans."
