movie review : AVATAR

With my net connection failing for the better half of the last two days, i thought i wouldnt be able to make this blogpost. but EYWA seems to have heard my prayers and so, here i am with the review of AVATAR. EYWA btw is the equivalent of GAYA(remember captain planet) in Pandora, where the movie is set in.


The movie begins with Jack Sully taking his twin brother's place on a mission to Pandora, a distant planet. The planet is similar to earth and is inhabited by a group of blue humanoids, called the Navis. A group of humans fly to pandora, there mission, to mine for a rare mineral found at the heart of the navi village. They soon setup a huge base camp. A team of scientists are assigned the task to transform a few humans into navis and communicate with the local navi population and come to an agreement to mine the minerals.



Jack sully and a few other scientists are chosen as avatars, humans in a navi's body. As the movie progresses, jack sully becomes one among the navi's and eventually falls in love with the navi princess. But the agreement fails to materialise and the humans begin war. The navis are outraged and Jack is thrown out. How jack earns back their trust and how he saves Pandora forms the rest of the story.



The first ten minutes of the movie is rather dry, but the pace picks up from then on. The CG work in the movie is outstanding. A big thumbs up to the CG crew. Without them, this movie would not have been possible, because apart from a couple of scenes, almost the entire movie is computer generated!!!


A big thumbs up for JAMES CAMEROON and his crew. the scenes have been beautifully crafted and the screenplay and CG work are definitely the plus points of the movie. The way some scenes have turned up is truly breathtaking.


In a nutshell, James Cameroon and his crew have given us a visual treat. A must watch movie for people of all ages.


Enjoy the holidays.

Merry Christmas.

Adios!!!!
