Pretty Effects, Long Movie

Rating: 5/10 (19 December 2009)

My advice to you is where something comfortable when viewing Avatar. I would suggest a good pair of shorts, a snuggie, a dress, or a good pair of lose fitting pants. Man, my balls were hurting big time mid way thru the movie. I saw the movie at an IMAX theater in Anaheim, CA. I was surprised the projected film did not occupy the entire IMAX screen. There black bars on the left and right side of the rather small IMAX screen. I digress though, back to the movie. I stopped enjoying the special effects when Cameron decided to make a big deal out of the death Sigorney Weaver's character in the movie. It just dragged on and on. I think if the movie was pared down to under 2 hours, it would have been more enjoyable and less painful on the ball sack. Oh don't take any kids either, I saw a man take his 4 year old to a 10:40PM viewing, poor kid was scared.
