This movie talks a lot about soul but has none

Rating: 7/10 (19 December 2009)

This movie draws a lot of parallel between the invasion of America by the western forces and how people down the line seem to have lost the way. But it suffers from poorly written "Americanised" dialogs and typical clichés. The visuals are stunning and the CGI is above par but that is its primary USP, just as how the ship and its size was for Titanic. One curious note though is that 30 years ago Cameron directed a movie in which the righteous humans slaughtered the gory animal like aliens. Fast forward to now and it is their turn to exact revenge. Welcome to the "new age" or self deprecation. The Gaia hypothesis, the loss of innocence and the golden age of civilization are all examined in this movie, but much more justice could have been done if it were not meant to attract the holiday movie goers. 7/10 just for the CGI and the Visuals.
