"Avatar" is a prime example of a triumph of style over substance.

Rating: 2/10 (10 October 2012)

James Cameron is an incredibly overrated director. "Avatar" is a terrible film. The story is completely unoriginal and totally ridiculous. The acting is less than stellar. The dialogue is absolutely cringe-worthy. The CGI is groundbreaking and the only reason this film ever received any praise. The film is thoroughly conventional. The script feels far more like a campy exploitation flick on Syfy rather than groundbreaking cinema."Avatar" absolutely did not deserve to be competing at the Academy Awards against far superior films like Kathryn Bigelow's "The Hurt Locker" and Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds". I absolutely hated this film!!!
