"Dances With Wolves" in outer space

Rating: 6/10 (30 March 2012)

Uhm, haven't we been there and done that already? Oh wait, that was "Dances with Wolves." Okay, so before all of you out there who love this movie as much as I love some other movies say anything, let me just say what I have to say.
I didn't love the movie, I didn't hate the movie. I was transformed into the world of Pandora and boom, the movie was over before I knew it. I felt it was very entertaining, however, have we not seen this movie a million times before? Sure the special effects were phenomenal, but I am at a point where I wish directors and companies would stop relying so much on special effects and more on a story. I get what it is trying to tell us. The religious aspect, the ecological aspect, race, love, freedom....the list goes on. I get it. I won't even criticize the acting. I am just at a point where I feel that special effects are beginning to control the movies that are made for us, not the director/producer/studio. When do you ever hear during a trailer, "the greatest story you'll ever see?" Never, you always hear" With groundbreaking effects." The greatest film of all time? I think not.
