A wait of 12 years for a movie from your favorite director, was it worth it? Just like many around me, I was very skeptical about the movie, watching the blue creatures in the trailers. Dubbed as the most expensive movie ever made by man, Avatar promised a 3D experience like never before and it lived upto it. Its kind of a cliche these days that we hardly find any bad performances in a movie made by the leading directors, but this movie would stand out from the rest considering the animation aspect of the characters. Team Avatar simply excels in portraying every detail of their ideas. By the time the last frame rolled I was absolutely in love with Pandora, the moon of a distant planet where all the narration takes place. A decent emotional scene from a regular love story always gives out a feel good emotion but imagine it happening in a bioluminescensent environment during Pandora’s night enhanced by the 3D aspect.
I am sure this movie would be a benchmark on many technical aspects and as many said ” a pre and post AVATAR era”. By the time the movie finished, I got a feeling that I just visited pandora and came back to Santa Clara, CA. It being a 2hrs 40 min movie, James Cameron made sure that the narration keeps you involved in the movie with the right mix of a good story and mind blowing visual effects. If your calender is full for the coming week, just make a place for this movie on an imax screen no matter what before some one gives out a spoiler. I am pretty sure it would rewrite all the records created by the Titanic 12 years ago… Great Job Team Avatar, a special mention for James Cameroon for making his dream into a spectacular experience and entertaining us like never before. After completing this post I am driving to the IMAX screen for the next show …
