    Avatar: What an Experience

    by vtzac4567

    This movie is the turning point for everything in the future of Hollywood.
    From the new and exciting technologies, to the enticing and origional world,
    This movie delievers in every way.
    -The Directing is absolutely amazing
    -The acting is exceptional, even though most of the shots were done while wearing bulky motion-capture.
    -The plot is a standard one, played many times before, but with new twists and turns.
    -Although the Sci-Fi runs rampent, it is an undertone, bering that you forget the distinctions that differ us from the Natives. Within 10 minutes, you connect and sympathize with them.

    This is one of, if not the best movie i have ever seen,
    I fully reccomend it to anyone willing to escape the hummdrum of everyday life, and get away to the captivating world of Pandora.

    We Were Transfixed!

    by BalancedCritic

    Whether it was the 3D IMAX presentation and the mesmerizing imagery, or the incredible interaction of man attempting to understand and indeed appreciate and learn from another culture, (something we could incorporate into everyday national and personal life), or the hugely successful animation which carried all the emotion of human screen presentation, this movie brought us somewhere we have never been before, and we literally did not blink for the entirety of the film. We were transfixed! Incredibly well done, and enormously worth seeing. Wonderful holiday wishes to all.

    LOVED IT EVEN MORE THE 2ND TIME !!!!!

    by r1111s

    This time I saw it in IMAX 3D vs Digital 3D. If you have a choice, I recommend the IMAX. It's a bigger experience. Since I already saw the movie once, this time I had the opportunity to notice some of the details that I missed the first time (e.g., details of the computer interfaces and the log entries that Sully was making like the date, 8/31/2154) and to really take in the beautiful artwork that comes to life. This film is now my #1 favorite of all time. When I left the theater, I had the same WOW reaction that I did the first time I saw it; and all I could think about was when can I go again. The acting is great. The story line is great. The special effects are great. The direction is great. The effect is magical. James Cameron hit this one out of the galaxy. Avatar will win every award there is. This film is EPIC.
