Avatar2009

There really is so much to talk about in this movie that is dumb and forced and lame, but I don't feel like explaining those things so I'll just say that it's a visually breathtaking movie with some of the best VFX in all of cinema, Crisp, booming sound, and gorgeous cinematography, with a dull, poorly paced, overly long plot, forgettable and uninteresting characters, laughable villains with no depth or subtly whatsoever and in general a plot and message that feels so forced and lacking in any sort of nuance or depth. This movie has some of the most surface-level themes about humans vs the environment that are painfully forced and don't ever look deeper than Nature= good, and humans= bad. I would still say it's worth seeing in IMAX because of how visually stunning it is, but if you don't care about that, just watch Princess Mononoke instead. That's a movie with gorgeous animation and immersive sound, but an actually deep story with intelligence and depth.
