The Star Wars Of Our Generation

Rating: 5/10 (17 January 2010)

James Cameron's "Avatar" was mind-blowing, and know doubt one of the best science fiction movies of all time, up there with Blade Runner and Star Wars. When we first researched the movies budget, we thought it was insane that they could spend that much on a movie, but now we realize why. Visually, "Avatar" was unbelievable. It took us into a mystical, magical, and incredibly original world. The native people were original, the creatures were original, and the scenery was original, all of them great spectacles as well. The directing was phenomenal and provided great angles and shots, taking us a step further into the unique universe. The script was great even while using some minor clichés, and the story was a little predictable but nonetheless amazing. It was perfectly cast, the actors and actresses helping suck you in and really feel for the characters. You MUST see Avatar in theaters if you can, as it would not be quite the same on DVD. While we're only going to give "Avatar" a 9.8 out of 10, it still goes on the must see before you die list simply because of the imagery. This movie proves that you can make a movie great in all aspects; the writing, the visuals, the acting, and the directing make James Cameron's Sci-Fi epic the "Star-Wars" of our generation. 9.8/10
