Avatar is High Art.

Rating: 10/10 (20 December 2009)

Avatar in 3D is most likely the most beautiful thing I have ever seen... I'm not referring to films here. It is absolutely overwhelming visually. It's really quite hard to find words. Inevitably, some will find weaknesses, which is predictable. However, this movie is in no way deserving of any criticism.
It's ironic to me, just hours before going to see Avatar, I was discussing with a friend the lack of new, really good stories coming out of Hollywood at the moment. It seems to me, all of the entertaining films as of late, are remakes of classic ideas... I stand corrected. It's nice to know truly great film-making is alive and well!
Amongst all that's going on in the world at the moment, I urge you to take a break. Go see Avatar and celebrate a little of what is so inspiring and truly amazing about the creative potential of humanity.
