Over-hyped & Overrated

Rating: 6/10 (10 January 2012)

Where do I start......
How 'bout with the plot. Anybody here ever see "Dances With Wolves"?? If you answered "yes" (as I'm sure most of you did) then you must be aware that Avatar's plot was lifted....no, COPIED...almost entirely from "Dances". Wounded soldier goes to a far-flung outpost to make contact with "aliens" so-to-speak and ends up assimilating with them and ultimately siding with them blah blah blah.......I half expected to see a blue Kevin Costner running around yelling "Totanka! Totanka!" The SFX?? At no time during this movie did I think I WASN'T watching a cartoon. Visually beautiful but the avatars all looked very, very CGI. The movie didn't stink but overall is was a very big disappointment.
