A visual feast, but the script lacks neutrality

Rating: 8/10 (7 August 2010)

Fantastic for what it truly is, a visual spectacle. I give Cameron credit for showing us wonderful imagery and lifelike humanoid beings. What I don't give him credit for is the lousy and heavy-handed script and dialogue that seems to pound you over the head repeatedly with it's "evil big-wig" message. We get it, we're bad, they're good. This is all punctuated by one annoying character so I had to cringe whenever they talked. Regardless, it's simply a masterpiece for imagery in terms of the scope and grandeur. But I hope Cameron tones down his "message" for the sequel and just focus on the internal Pandora conflict, which will make for fantastic story-telling.
