A very good movie, not great

Rating: 7/10 (2 January 2010)

Before I saw this movie I did not expect much after seeing the trailer. I knew going in to the theater that the special-effects were going to be awesome, and, oh believe me, they were. James Cameron had painted a wonderful place for the audience to watch and enjoy. A place you wish existed for real. You will get mesmerized, thats for sure.
But then we come to the part that was as I expected, the story. Don't get me wrong, it was a very good story. But buy watching the trailer you knew how everything was going to end up, it was to basic. And the army guy, to much of a stereotype, it bothered me.
I love a movie that makes me think, wanting more. Coming home from the theater and just longing for the DVD to come out. This movie did not do that for me, mostly because of the story.
Don't get me wrong. Go and see the movie, you will love it. Just don't praise it to much cause yes its beautiful story and a wonderful world. But its not great
