Paradise and ecstasy, all through Cameron's imagination.

Rating: 8/10 (8 October 2012)

James Cameron's virtual creation deserves it formidable success due to our recognition of it. Avatar changed the perception of film, enlightened the use of 3D technology beyond any other film and placed us in a wonderful landscape. It has acquired multiple criticisms, this a considerable amount with regards to the films topical depiction and suffering with a poor narrative. In response, James Cameron's biggest challenge paid off, the narrative was never a key component. Taking the audience to a new world exhumes spectators; we are intrigued by the possibility of the discovery of an alternative to Earth. Although every film employs a critique, Avatar is equally a sign of and an active influence with regards to our existing culture.
Cameron's virtual world can be rectified as the interpretation to the limits of technology. There is the possibility of the human race entering such a fundamental experience in the near future with the launch of four dimensional cinema and the vast increase in picture releases in 3D. Maybe Cameron's Avatar's are a preview of the future. This seems a little extreme, but altogether possible with the likelihood of technological expansion. The protagonist, Jake (Sam Worthington), is a deliberate example of the prospect by transferring himself from a disabled fragile body to a secondary being that promises potential and accompanied with a strong nature.
Avatar adopts and reinterprets a range of genres and styles. It is incontestably a produce of post-colonialism; it portrays the Na'vi as a non detrimental tribe who are environmentally friendly and dedicated to protection. Meanwhile the military exist as a careless regime, digging for supremacy with the intent of seizing all intelligence with an overwhelming display of events, continuing to disseminate the myth of the unyielding fighter.
Also in this film, gender seems to go unnoticed without drawing these from a critical point of view. The protagonist, Jake Sully, although immobilised implements a strong will and is blessed with a mentally tough attitude. He is the only character with the capabilities to negotiate with the Na'vi by building a structure for them to understand his prowess and for him to comprehend with the 'savage' way of living. His love interest is fascinating to say the least and provides us with a mixture of both male and female characteristics. Neytiri (Zoe Saldana) is firm, naïve to fear but loving and loyal to the principle of family. Sigourney Weaver's intelligent biologist personality, Grace, enables us to understand the hypothetical dedication of the military visit to the native paradise. She incorporates an interactive measure to the film by reminding us of the reason behind gaining intelligence. She is the interpretation of Jake's mother or guardian, reminding him of the commitment he must endure due to his incapacity as he frequently loses himself by playfully trotting through the wonderment of the native world. He is portrayed as the avatar of the viewers, guiding them through Pandora as both he and they learn about it. Although, at first, Jake is characterised in this manner, he soon becomes our saviour character, the most competent and capable. The narrative is indicative of most Hollywood films that portray the implementation of a lost sole, by placing him into an unknown world, but developing him, therefore choosing to be one of the Na'vi.
The elegance of the Na'vi's wonderful physical and mental connection with nature emotionally ties us to Pandora's cognitive components and landscape. The narrative couldn't support this entirely without the influence of Cameron's fanatical technological thesis. Any story can be imaginable, but arguably without the influence of hi-tech expertise the narrative is extremely predictable even though it possesses some moral and race related themes. We have seen Avatar's narrative countless times elsewhere without the wonderful tones and magical images. James Cameron was able to build a project that has potential to become the highest grossing film of all time. This exemplifies that cultural surroundings have altered as the ideology the environment has developed into becoming mainstream. Avatar illustrates that the perfect world exists only through the influences of mediation. The film relies on this concept to a great deal, often deteriorating the importance of the tale and the audience's recognition of it.
