I don't typically like sci-fi, but I really enjoyed this! I saw it in IMAX 3D, and it was so much fun to watch. I didn't even notice how long it was. I didn't think Sam Worthington did the best acting job, but other than that it was good!

Worthington portrays a nice character arch as his human paraplegic body loses the definition of a fit marine and his Na'vi body becomes a warrior. Saldana is sweet and protectively vicious when need be. Weaver is tough as a diplomatic scientist standing up to Ribisi the corpora...( read more)

A must see. And to truly appreciate the visual and technological beauty of this film...you really should see in 3D.
Unfortunately to spite the technological & visual majesty and an intriguing mythology, the film suffers from some painfully predictale plot lines and terribly t...( read more) -

Even through all the hype, I didnt think I would like this as much as I did. Everyone got my hopes up, but they still were not high enough. The only movie to crack my top 15 since 2000 is Pirates of the Caribbean, and I didnt think it would happen again for a long time. But Avata...( read more)

Critic Reviews
I had the feeling coming out of this movie that I haven't felt since maybe I was eleven years old in 1977 and I saw Star Wars for the first time. full review
It's a remote-control movie experience, a high-tech "wish you were here" scribbled on a very expensive postcard. full review
The most-hyped movie of the year just about merits it. full review
Mr. Cameron's singular vision has upped the ante for filmed entertainment, and given us a travelogue unlike any other. I wouldn't want to live on Pandora, mainly because of the bad air, but I'm glad t... full review
The villains are mostly out of pantomime; much of the dialogue needs a stretcher; and the save-the-rainforest plot is a pain. Just take your eyes to the film. Leave all other faculties at home. full review
Everyone recites their lines, awkwardly laying out exposition, speaking their clunky dialogue. None of this is supposed to matter, because we're presumably busy marveling at all the money on display. full review
The film vibrates with the excitement of discovery and awe. Not just for the sight of six-legged rhinos and butterfly-hued dragons, but for the thousands of hours of work that unite here in a creative... full review
Combining beyond-state-of-the-art moviemaking with a tried-and-true storyline and a gamer-geek sensibility -- not to mention a love angle, an otherworldly bestiary, and an arsenal of 22d-century weapo... full review
Avatar is an entertainment to be not just seen but absorbed on a molecular level; it's as close to a full-body experience as we'll get until they invent the holo-suits. Cameron aims for sheer wonderme... full review
For all the grandeur and technical virtuosity of the mythical 3-D universe Cameron labored for years to perfect, his characters are one-dimensional, rarely saying anything unexpected. But for much of ... full review
It extends the possibilities of what movies can do. Cameron's talent may just be as big as his dreams. full review
The corniest movie ever made about the white man's need to lose his identity and assuage racial, political, sexual and historical guilt. full review
With Avatar, a cinematic revolution doesn't begin so much as proceed into its next phase. full review
There is still at least one man in Hollywood who knows how to spend $250 million, or was it $300 million, wisely. full review

January 1, 2010This movie was amazing 5 stars all around. a few bits were predictable but everything else made up for that. in 3d its hard to blink in case you miss something. i dont care about praising the director, the special effects company Weta deserves all the praise. imagine how hard they worked to produce a movie like this.

December 21, 2009I see many people on here knocking the 3d experience..im here to tell you that if you watched this movie in 2d..you would miss a lot of the color that makes Pandora beautiful..i watched this on a H.D.screen in 3d..and when i removed my glasses..there was a great loss of color..also i see people criticizing the fact that the dialog is a bit short of words...while that may be true..sometimes a ton of words are not needed to convey sentiment..The flow of the movie and the actions taken by the people speak louder than words...Funny how when Quentin Tarantino makes a movie with limited dialog...that is so whacked you can hardly understand it..the whole world jumps on the bandwagon..while the story may have borrowed from other like stories..It is science fiction...and No one criticizes musicians who quite frequently borrow from each other to create top 10 hits..Maybe James Cameron is still way ahead of his time..
