Avatar - Movie Review

I dont know how the world could even imagine a war scene if ppl like Michael Bay , James Cameron dont exist. The hype created on the movie was too much. I thought of giving a shot, got the tickets for paid preview and yeah..on board to visit the Pandora. To be said in a single line, the movie has very little storyline, huge special effects, excellent 3D experience ( whole movie), lotsa desi movie look alike scenes , and completely aimed at first week box office gross.

The story starts somewhere in 2154 AD. . The corporate finds huge deposits of Unobtainium (?) in a natural satellite of another planet. There is a place called Pandora over there and a clan called Na-vi survives there. They have a Hometree and underneath it, lays the huge deposits of Unobtainum.Now they need to get it coz it can be sold at 20 million per kg. But its really hard to go over there to the oxygen-less Pandora and to fight with the clan and get the job done. So they work on a "AVATAR" program and make blue colored na-vi look alikes to intrude into the clan.

Jake, the hero who is an ex US Marine , who got wounded and paralyzed below the waist line, dejected and put on a wheel chair. He joins the program thinking that he can feel his legs back. His nearly 8 feet avatar been created with his DNA. He goes to Pandora and there meets a gal Neytiri and as usual..love at first sight , gets into amorous bonding and then all those bollywood stuff follows. Dr.Grace (Sigourney Weaver) mentors Jack and helps him through out his ordeal to give the message to the na-vi clan that the hometree gonna be blown off soon The rest of the story tells how he becomes one of them and fight with his own human clan to preserve the ecology of Na-vi and the ppl.He should be attending the Copenhagen conf. :P

So thats it.. this is wat the plot i could ascertain from the 2hr 40 mins movie ( Why Me? ). The story really failed to strike the chord. The whole movie is a 3D eye feast. Please dont waste ur valuable money on this movie, if its not in 3D. The top notch special effects can be experienced properly only in 3D. If its in IMAX, then bingo.. the movie is really worth it. There are some unbelievable visual 3D effects scenes, at the same time , there are some 'unbelievable' superstitious scenes also. Its a colorful movie. Believe it. The birds, animals, and watver u call it, everything had a rainbow over it. Nice to see it on 3D.

Why the Na-vi speak middle-east english.? (History been pronounced as 'his-tho-ry'). I dont know about the fantasy-fairy tale loving ppl, U guys will enjoy it. And the ardent novel readers will view the movie in another perspective. I am sure they will be keen on noticing the mythical creatures, their names etc been shown in the movie. It was lil bit tiresome to watch ppl snarling at each other and the heroine screech like a vixen all the time. I remembered billie jean on seeing the illuminating footpaths when the hero gets into Pandora for the first time. The movie ends with a 20 min long climax fight scene. Michael Rodriguez looks super hot in the movie!!. That was the only consoling factor :P

The movie holds a very thin love story also. But failed to create impact like the one in titanic. I really liked the trailers of 'Toy story 3' and 'The Nightmare Before Christmas'. They kickass in 3D. So its upto you to give a shot to this movie. ! And in the end, there is a kinda titanic dialog.."Jake,...My Jake". . hehe. Its a nice 3D experience and I wish u become kids too when seeing those colorful fauna and flora of Pandora on screen. !
