Great Message, Simple Familiar Story

Rating: 8/10 (13 January 2010)

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Still, there were some part you wondered why he put them in. The basketball scene and stuff like that. The story seemed familiar but the method is all Cameron's. I know there were many plot mistakes and technical blunders but only he real trained eye could catch them. Instead you excuse them and take part in the journey. I would watch it again. I love the ore angle and the fuel possibilities. The only thing I always have a problem with Cameron is the way her shapes his characters to be all good or all bad. Still, this is a great cinematic treat I haven't had in a long time. The CGI was astounding and I love the fact that he made the world CGI so the characters could seamlessly interact. My brother thought the lead was really crippled until I explained to him how it was done. Cameron knows something many to her movie makers need to learn. We want to escape for a minute and not think about reality. Yet he injects modern day problems into this and it works.
