Visit Their World...Join Their Adventure

Rating: 9/10 (23 December 2009)

In 1997, James Cameron fascinated audiences with "Titanic", his blockbuster epic that went on to sweep the Academy Awards. Now, so many years later, he returns and brings with him a film of such hype and magnitude that it is almost incomprehensible. Being that it is a standalone film with no already-popular franchise to boost its support, "Avatar" earned its early buzz for...well, I suppose, being a real pain in James Cameron's butt to get made. Having had the idea for years, Cameron felt that only now was the technology sufficient enough to capture his specific vision; made for a massive budget (with some rumors placing it at approximately $300 million) and strategically marketed using hugely-popular sneak peeks, "Avatar" is finally out for mass consumption. One might think that such early hype could only lead to disappointment...but I simply can't imagine anyone being disappointed with this final product, no matter how high their expectations were.
