Avatar was splendid 3D IMAX glory. I was initially thinking this deserved a 4/5, but then I was talkin to my good colleague Chief Chim, and was like, "nahhh that idea just got BLOCKED. 4.5 baby. Upgrade."
This movie just kept SKYIN on ya. Beautiful CGI landscapes, good acting from Worthington and Saldana (who is so hot that getting within even a 2 mile radius of her vagina instantly makes you orgasm - trust me, this one time I was chillin in Lucky Strike at Hollywood and Highland and out of nowhere I creamed my boxers mid-bowl...twas the power of her twat. Believe it.)
I think I'm still dizzy from the 3D effects...the whole movie has me dizzy. Great themes, great imagery, great symbolism...a smart film packed into the blockbuster format. Go Cameron go. See it immediately you clowns.

Super super super duper modern noir set in a high school atmosphere. Twas ballin.
Weird and wild almost Shakespearean dialogue gettin slung about like snowballs in this flick...needed a glossary to keep up.
Ultimately, a highly original movie with a superb script and a nice low budget gem stone.

David Fincher is sick in a perfect way. My #1 film of all time currently. NOTHING tops it...STILL. I've watched this movie like 25 times and every time I watch it, even if I gotta go take a piss, I PAUSE THE MOVIE cuz I can't miss a scene. Every actor is on point. Pitt is simply badass. Norton is amazing. Bonham Carter dominates. Fincher has such an unrelenting need to film each shot perfectly that he routinely uses over 50 takes for important scenes...dude takes his shit seriously. I think that's why I love this movie so much - every single shot is painstakingly crafted. No movie comes close to this masterpiece.

I've heard the creators have ripped off several sources...I honestly don't care. This is the most imaginative movie I've ever seen.
