Excellent movie :)

Rating: 10/10 (7 February 2010)

*maybe little spoiler*
I heard that "Avatar" was brilliant from my friends and so many reviewers. I was actually quite nervous of seeing it. Because I had such high expectations.
"Is it as good as everybody says?" I went to the cinema's with a friend who has already seen it. She said it was great. Since she's seeing it again with me.
The whole day for the cinema's was full. We both saw it on 3-D. we were lucky to get in. 2 and a half hours exiting the cinema when it ended. I LOVED IT! I was not disappointed.
The beautiful, charming world of Pandora. Was so realistic and beautiful. Especially at night where everything glows. The 3-D enhanced the surrounding area made it almost look realistic.
The motion capture of the characters was also incredible. Their movements flow with the movement of creatures in real life. Their expressions were also carefully looked at. Zoe Saldana did an excellent job as Neytiri. You can really see her pain through betrayal and sadness of losing an important part of her world.
Sam Worthington also did a good job as Jake Sulley. he has few small funny parts of the movie. But he did a great job as the main character.
But the story completely lacks originality. The story seems to have taken bits of Pocahontas, Ferngully and Dinotopia. The only thing different is that it's Sci-Fi oriented and they go a bit further into defeating their enemies and showing more tragedy. Some bits and reasonings might also seem far fetched. But hey it's a movie! ENJOY IT! XD the war scene was mega awesome!
I was not really impressed with some of dialogue though. "Juujuu berries" or "Daisy Cutters". You can easily think of things for them to say other than that. Especially with the things that they were talking about.
The score of the movie done by James Horner. Might not be the best score ever heard. But it suites the movie perfectly. I liked it and that I got the soundtrack.
I loved the movie. My grandfather took me to see it again this time in IMAX 3-D. Since he wanted to see it. He also enjoyed it.
It is a great spectacle of a movie. And I clearly advise to go see it. But if you don't want to see anymore save the environment movies......then don't see it.
I'm going to buy it once it comes out on DVD
