AVATAR

Well I went and saw the most expensive movie ever made. I went with my dad for his birthday he was dying to see it and how do you say no to your dad on his 59th Birthday, you can't! Not that I minded I was interested in going to see a bunch of really tall blue things that closely resembled a mix between a sea creature and a feline. And what was even better was we were seeing it 3D pretty awesome! So we got in the car at 10PM paid out 10 dollars, got some popcorn and watched. And to say the least I was impressed with Cameron's film production. It had a wonderful mix of fairytale, adventure, thrill and romance to capture the heart of the majority of the theater including the obnoxious couple behind us who had a side comment after every scene straight from the previews on.

Pandora was beautiful it had a stunning mystical feeling that was a cross between the Amazon and deep under the ocean. The creatures in the film even crossed between land and sea mammals which was very creative in my opinion. The tribe in the film, the large blue avatar were enchanting right along side their homeland. Their culture resembled that of a Native American tribe making the movie feel more realistic. They showed a great appreciation for the earth and their way of life was nothing less than honorable. Native American culture is fascinating to me so therefore so was this movie. Their passion like the avatar's passion is something to live up to and the moral to the story was what makes the film so great. That is not to say that it did not have its cheesy parts. Stephen Lang's facial expression and drive had me in a chuckle at a few parts during the film because to me they were not what I consider convincing. But overall the cast did a wonderful job in making the movie what it was, making you feel you were part of Pandora experiencing their beautiful world. I was able to leave the theater with a different outlook for the world surrounding even if it is not as cool as Pandora. Overall I throughly enjoyed the film and recommend it to others if you enjoy action packed romance films with a obvious sci-fi flare.

It was a Grade A Movie.
