Could have been so much more. So so much more!

Rating: 6/10 (3 February 2010)

Incredible visuals. Poor story telling coupled with bad characters and nightmarish AWFUL dialogue pull you out of what could have been a GREAT Film. In time this film will fade in its regard, as Titanic did, to a purely visual otherwise so so movie.
To say this belongs in the 250 best films is a joke. It will certainly win best picture at the Oscars but in the end its MAYBE the 8th best film out of the 10, maybe.
When Cameron doesn't write his films they end up being much much better (Aliens is one of my all time favorites), not that different from George Lucas, both people with an eye for the visual but no talent for writing, especially dialogue.
I can't fathom buying this movie on Blu-Ray, it's purely a theater experience, and an interesting one at that, but that's where it ends.
Let the lowest common denominator rave about it, you the movie going audience should demand more.
