    Visually astounding, but I was quite upset with the blatant rip off of Dances with Wolves when it came to the story.

    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!

    It's an epic, sci-fi action masterpiece. An extraordinary, fascinating, deeply moving and utterly spectacular adventure. A visually incredible and compelling film. It sets new standards for the genre and creates an amazing new world. Director, James Cameron is back and dosent fai...( read more)l to satisfy with his new vision that truly is a classic. A riveting, explosive and relentless action-packed thrill-machine. Some of the best special effects, digital creatures and action sequences that are like nothing you have seen before, it will astonish you in every way imaginable. It stands with awesome effects action films like Star Wars and The Lord Of The Rings. It's truly brilliant film making. It's heart-pounding, mind-blowing and exhilarating all the way to its outstanding finish. One of the best films of the decade, also one of the greatest action movie experiences ever made. There has never been anything quiet like Avatar, so it truly grabs you and dazzles you. Loaded with non-stop explosive action and amazing special effects. It definitely stands with Cameron's classic films like Aliens, Terminator 2 and True Lies. An magnificent all-star cast. Sam Worthington is outstanding, doing an amazing job in the lead role, just like he did proving himself in Terminator Salvation. Showing he's a compelling leading man and stellar action star. Stephen Lang gives an awsome and predatory performance.

    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)te man and Lang the military man, but is soft and gentle in her Avatar body. Her Avatar looks a bit more plastic than most of the others for some reason. My pick for the tough as nails female character goes to Michelle Rodriquez though. Lang is scary and grizzled. I can see the connections to movies like Dances with Wolves. I like that type of story where an outsider becomes immersed in another culture. I really appreciated the Native American, one with nature, interconnected web of existence, style of spirituality that the Na'vi have.

    The movie is visually a spectacle!! The spectacular luminous, glow in the dark vegetation, and tree top or cliff edge world of Pandora is thrilling. It is the type of big epic movie for which 3D technology was invented. I like that this is not only a science fiction movie or a fantasy movie. I love the mixture of mythical fantasy elements and the high tech robotic suits and digital virtual touch screens.

    This is a movie I want to experience more than see (the plot itself seems familiar and the snippets I've caught advertised doesn't particularly bode well for the acting potential). 3D trip number 3 to come!

    Picture a Sci-Fi version of Pocahontas on steroids. The special effects bring the whole science up several notches. I'd like to see it again!
