Review of Avatar

Avatar (2009)
9/10
A breathtaking experience
19 December 2009
This movie just blew me away. I expected great things and got even more than I anticipated. The story and characters are engaging (if not particularly deep or original) and the visuals are truly mind-blowing and literally jaw-dropping. (My mouth was probably open for at least half of the movie.) The detailed world James Cameron has created is really immersive and unprecedented in its scope, beauty and creativity. And boy, does he know how to stage and frame an exciting action sequence! The 3D is the best I've seen by far and the performance capture is miles above anything we've seen before. Only a few cheesy moments that are a bit hard to swallow keep the film from being completely great. Still, it's a must-see!
