avatar movie reviews
Amazing creatures, cool environments, impressive 3-D effects, and awesome action scenes make “Avatar” the must-see movie of the 2009 holiday season. [1]
Avatar is unequivocally, completely, 100% the film that has been percolating in James Cameron’s head for the last fourteen years. [2]
In the years and days leading up to the release of “Avatar,” James Cameron ’s long-in-production dream project and first feature film since 1997’s box-office record-breaking “Titanic,” anticipation and recrimination seemed to be running neck-and-neck. [3]
There’s a paraplegic soldier named Sully (Sam Worthington, ‘Markus’ in Terminator: Salvation) who is somehow implanted in or changed into a simulated alien or ‘avatar’ with the help of another holdover from Aliens, the wonderful Sigourney Weaver. [...] She becomes an alien avatar also, with other aliens played/voiced by Zoe Saldana (Uhura in the Star Trek movie) and Michelle Rodriguez (Ana Lucia on LOST). [4]
Fandango, the ultimate movie ticketing destination, is your source for movie tickets and movie times. [5]
It might be more impressive on a technical level than as a piece of storytelling, but Avatar reaffirms James Cameron’s singular gift for imaginative, absorbing filmmaking. [6]
The most expensive and technically ambitious film ever made, James Cameron’s long-gestating epic pitting Earthly despoilers against a forest-dwelling alien race delivers unique spectacle, breathtaking sights, narrative excitement and an overarching anti-imperialist, back-to-nature theme that will play very well around the world, and yet is rather ironic coming from such a technology-driven picture. [7]
You have to like a movie that tells a story from beginning to end, with no pretense of leaving it half told for a money making sequel. [8]
AVATAR takes us to a spectacular world beyond imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on an epic adventure, ultimately fighting to save the alien world he has learned to call home. [9]
It is not, in all probability, the film that you had in yours when you first heard that the man who directed Aliens and The Terminator was returning to sci-fi. [2]
I can’t stand it now a days when movie companies just decide to throw everything out there including the ending to the film in TV spots and Trailers….. [1]
Glorious and goofy and blissfully deranged.Read Full Review? [3]
Twelve years after Titanic, which still stands as the all-time B.O. champ, Cameron delivers again with a film of universal appeal that just about everyone who ever goes to the movies will need to see. [7]
Cameron has never made a movie just to show off visual pyrotechnics: Every bit of technology in “Avatar” serves the greater purpose of a deeply felt love story. [2]
