James Cameroon has dedicated 13 long years for this masterpiece and it certainly is a masterpiece. Avatar is a must watch! This was much awaited movie for me and I saw the movie, liked it very much, and it worth watching for everyone.
Avatar takes you to a new world and gifts you a new level of entertainment on the occasion of Christmas. After such a long time; an excellent 3 D movie is released by Hollywood studios, with James Cameroon dedicating so many years and around 250 million to this great piece of art. The movie is really superb and the 3D concept really works.
One actually feels the jungle, the environment surrounding him and for the time being one is completely lost in an absolutely different world of sheer glitter and amazement. Between a green worldview and the globe’s war over a natural resource, James Cameron’s twin similarities of present-day politics are quite smart and moving. This is Cameron’s first feature film in 12 years. His Titanic (1997) was a legend and so should be avatar in my opinion. This one is similar in its own way, no less simplistic in its screenwriting attitude. Few aspects allow for any gray complexities.
The Na’vi - the 10 foot tall blue creatures that Sully encounters - are unlike anything ever seen before. The colors, the special effects, everything in this film (which cost hundreds of millions of dollars to produce) are what makes the show so awesome. There is no underlying novel or myth to generate his story. He certainly draws deeply on Westerns, going back to "The Vanishing American". There’s a hero, who has little to lose. He (Sam Worthington) is a paraplegic marine, recruited to be teleported as a Na’vi into Pandora, because his genes match his dead twin’s. He is sent to spy on the other world where he would be living as one of them. In a switch over, he would get his legs back in shape. His human form remains under a sub-zero coffin, while his brain wandering, with a new body, in a different and fresh planet. There is also a beautiful female lead, brave Nyetiri (Zoe Saldana), a Na’vi, with a inexhaustible competence for unconditional love. Then there is a villain also, Col. Miles Quaritch (Steven Lang), a ‘shakaal’ kind of bald marauder, who doesn’t notice anything away from destruction.
Our hero is stuck in his choice between love, and the loaded gun that he is. And then there is surely the magnificent climax. The screen is dark and psychedelic blue. The 3-D glasses, slightly weighty over the bridge of your nose after a while, connect you to an outer space, to admire its computer-generated vastness, or eerily feel a golf ball glide into a coffee mug. Clearly, the 70 mm screen has lost its power of “shock and awe” as visual retreat. Cameron, a director born with the boon of the masterpiece, understands this. Pandora is so immersive, it stops being a story at all and is instead just a sheer, unmitigated visual and auditory experience, two hours and forty minutes of being exposed to a brand new world. While visually perfect, Avatar hasn’t got a perfect story that could be called original. However, the last 40 minutes are stunning. The only way to tell if you are going to like Avatar is to go and see it for yourself. You can read movie reviews until you are blue in the face, but the fact remains that everyone has their own tastes. but in my opinion it is surely a must watch for all and it will be a great feast for almost all who watch it.
