Avatar

I was thinking of attempting to write a real review, but I'd rather not until I learn from a teacher. Which probably won't happen. :(

I saw Avatar 3D and it was visually really pretty and awesome and creative and cool beans. But aside from that the story wasn't that new or that clever. Most of the characters were one dimensional, and I'm still trying to figure out why I sympathized with the lead character. He was stupid most of the time, I think it was just cause he's crippled. Some things didn't really make sense to me, like why the People felt they could learn from him... it seemed like a loophole for him to be accepted to the group. Of course it was emotional because of the environment and stuff, which was a little overkill. Also, the dialog was lacking aka it was corny. Everything was almost cliche. The originality only comes from all the animals and plants and space and technology and it looks very great, as I said. The movie did what it was supposed to, which is entertain, excite and what have you and they probably spent the budget on cgi rather than story and whatever.
