I found this list that is fairly comprehensive. It lists the good, and the bad.

From the native movies that i've seen so far, there were non that i didn't like...
i loved Dreamkeeper, Song of Hiawatha, Into the West, Geronimo an american legend, Last of the Mohicans and Dances with Wolves!
besides, they all feature great actors like Graham Greene, Adam Beach, Wes Studi and Eddie Spears (many more, but thats too much to name)
