It's a remake of Dances With Wolves!

Rating: 3/10 (6 August 2019)

Read this paragraph and tell me whether I'm describing Avatar (2009) or Dances With Wolves (1990):
A young military man suffers an injury and is sent to an outpost being managed by military officers intent on colonizing the new land. The natives are viewed as hostile savages because they are not understood by the colonizing force. The main character befriends the natives, gains their trust, falls in love with one of their females, and ultimately cuts all bonds with his previous life so that he can spend the rest of his life with the native population. Also, that young native warrior who distrusts our the main character at first? He grows to trust our guy and (surprise!) they become best buddies....
Look, if you like starting at bright shiny objects for 2+ hours, then Avatar is the film for you. It's got great visual effects. The sound effects are awesome. And the hype around this film when it first came out was second to none. But if you saw Dances With Wolves, then you've already seen Avatar.
