Smurf-ahontas meets Fern Gully

Rating: 7/10 (5 January 2010)

Visually amazing. Spectacular. Awesome. Fantastic. By far one of the best looking films I have seen in ages.
Plot/Story/Acting/Theme - absolutely atrocious. Bloody awful.
The plot is an awful mix of The Smurfs, Pocahontas and Fern Gully. It really should be called 'Smurfahontas Gully' instead of 'Avatar'. I have also heard it described as a film about 'Magical Negroes'(for brief summary or the 'Magical Negroes' argument, see BBC article 'Is blue the new black?').
It was just the same with Titanic. Visually amazing and outstanding at the time but the plot and character lacked substantially and were often cringe-worthy.
I would recommend seeing it for the visual effects but little else.
