Avatar's Review

Plot: After his twin brother's death, Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) was the only one left that matched his DNA and the only one who can interact with his Avatar. In the year 2154, Earth's only hope of survival is a mineral called Unobtainium. The mineral is nested somewhere in a planet called Pandora. And mankind's greatest hope rests on the hands of Jake Sully and his ability to spy on the primitive tribe, called the Na'vi, and gain their trusts in order to get what they are after.

The Good: 12 years after Titanic, James Cameron still reigns as king of sci-fi movies. To be honest, I thought I was going to regret watching it in 3D since it might be distracting you from the bigger picture (like all the previous movies did, which is annoying). But Cameron proved me wrong and took it to a whole new level. And unlike Michael Bay who turns money into trash, Cameron knows who to make use of the 250-300 million dollars budget. In Avatar, you're not just watching the movie, but you're actually IN the movie and Jake Sully being your "Avatar". Pandora is just too beautiful to even be your wildest imagination. From the forest, to the beautiful and the imaginative creatures...argh, I just can't stop complimenting it. The story is simple, and anything more will be too complicated. It's message can never be more straightforward; save the green life and war will only make things more difficult. Moreover, the movie is 163 mins long and it's not boring even the slightest bit. C'mon people, every second of the movie is worth it and none of it is a waste of time cause every scene is just as important. I just wanna say that 2009 is almost a complete disasters for movies, a few of them saved it from a total blowout. Among the few, Avatar reigns above them all. Lets just hope that it beats Titanic's record.

The Bad: No movie is perfect. This one may be because of amateur acting, or some cheesy dialogue every now and then. But its flaws are easily covered by its strength, so that would explain the perfect score.

Overall: 10 / 10
