Jake Sully is a former Marine confined to a wheelchair. But despite his broken body, Jake is still a warrior at heart. He is recruited to travel light years to the human outpost on Pandora, where a corporate consortium is mining a rare mineral that is the key to solving Earth's energy crisis. He is given a mission to infiltrate the Na'vi, who have become a major obstacle to mining the precious ore. But a beautiful Na'vi female, Neytiri, saves Jake's life -- which changes everything.
the visuals and computer work were brilliant along with the costumes, but other than that it was not very good. the plot and acting weren't very good besides zoe saldana.
A wonderful movie placed in a beautifully rendered world on a different planet. The visuals are just brilliant. Perfect for sci-fi fans, or people that just like pretty colors...
Avatar, particularly in 3D, was a stunning, beautiful film that has caused many viewers to feel that our world is drab in comparison. But aside from its visual effects and soundtrack, Avatar isn't really that groundbreaking a film, despite its record-setting box office sales. The plot is simple and grossly unoriginal, with multiple plot holes the size of Texas and only a sliver of background information. The characters are mostly one or two-dimensional, their behavior predictable based on their opening lines.
But who cares when there are all these pretty colors? Oooooooooooooh...
