Good but not great.

Rating: 6/10 (24 January 2010)

When a movie generates this much excitement I like to analyse the screenplay and here we have an indigenous injustice and a love story intertwined using amazing effects set in a futuristic alien world. This allows poetic license for Cameron to wow cinema goers with new environments, creatures and aliens. But where he was smart was the concept of transposing humans into the new environment as one of the aliens through avatars. This will keep Cameron on track for the first billion dollar budget movie in the not too distant future. But what I realise is that there are so many bad big budget movies made nowadays that a good one can become conceived as great. Avatar is good but certainly not great!
