I have mixed feelings about this movie. On one hand, I don't really like Science Fiction or Fantasy movies. I mean, they are okay, but I prefer drama or comedy in the "real" world - these movies have higher probability to bring something more than just entertainment, laughter and pleasure on the "basic", let's say, level. Moreover, while watching "Avatar", with amazing graphics, stunning music, moral choices and important message, I knew exactly how this story was created and that it was supposed to thrill those, who would watch it. Simply saying - to manipulate their feelings.
But, on the other hand, I was watching this movie and, consciously, I was thrilled. I coudln't help myself. "Good job, Cameron" I thought after all. I was really surprised. "Avatar", of which I thought that it would be just a show of magical 3D animation and a simple story of a war between humans and aliens, turned out to be a movie far beyond my expectations. Well constructed story, characters, scenes... Obviously, this is a spectacular movie first of all, spectacular in the most common sense of this word. And I think this is what it was supposed to be. But, the great thing is that under this cover, if we reach deeper - if we only want to - we can experience a vision of the universal journey of every individual through life... I hope that the enthusiastic clapping during the credits was not only for the special effects! :)
"I see you" has now a new meaning. I won't be surprised if it is remembered by more than a small group of "Avatar" fans.
I whole-heartedly recommend.
And a trailer, as usual. And don't hesitate when going to the cinema - choose 3D version...
