This movie actually attempts to follow on from the original Pocahontas, and give a bit more of the "history". While Disney doesn't follow history line-for-line (it's a kids movie), it doesn't sugar coat what actually happened. And this is why I like this movie, because Pocahontas is taken to England. We not only get to see England, we see the king, and, the man Pocahontas actually falls in love with in history.
This is hard for most Hollywood watchers, as by their yardstick, she should throw down her bouquet at the altar and run into the arms of her former love. But no, she has successfully MOVED ON, a story that happens all too often in life for many adults.
So if there is one key story children can take from this film, is that love, and the heart, moves on.
