An Eye Opener against Merciless Natural Heritage Destruction

Rating: 9/10 (18 August 2014)

The movie is a fictional masterpiece closely related to the real environmental issues. One can see a direct correspondence between the events occurring on the planet "Pandora" in the movie and those actually happening on Earth. The movie is all about the greedy corporate head Parker Selfridge's mission to mine for precious minerals hidden in the forests of Pandora.Selfridge's men try to drive off the native Na'vi community from there and get control of the place. They employ an "Avatar"(a human mind in a Na'vi body), Jake to gain confidence of the natives and understand their strengths and weaknesses.
The theme of the movie being "How greedy capitalists use their money power to gain more and more valuable assets disregarding environmental issues" has been clearly conveyed to the audience. It also portrays that our scientific discoveries are still far away from truly understanding the intricacies of nature.
The movie builds around Jake's love story with Neyteri, a beautiful native girl.Jake's adventures while getting trained as a Na'vi fighter add to the thrill of the movie. It has mesmerizing visual effects with great animations. Amazing scenic beauty along with exotic plants and animals provides great visual pleasure to the viewers.
Finally, the movie ends with the natives winning the battle and the humans retreating back to earth. Overall, the movie is a good three hour experience which awakes us to think about environmental concerns associated with any human intrusion in natural space.
