Considering this was made several years ago, it really holds up. Sure, the CGI wasn't perfect at the time, but as long as you can overlook that, it's totally enjoyable.
The movie does make you realize how monstrous the human race can be.

We watched it again last evening and enjoyed. I got a kick out of the guy who ran the military aspect of the movie, he had all the comments that we have heard in all the action military movies. For example, "were all in this together"&…

Visually incredible, but better story telling of this plot is available via Ferngully, if you are looking for climate change allegory. Also the plot has a clear white people saving indigenous people aspect, which is problematic, but…

The film is beautiful and awe-inspiring, with some pretty decent actors.
On the other hand, it's just a sci-fi version of Dances With Wolves/Pocahontas/Ferngully.

Full of cliches and cultural appropriation. Visually interesting and well acted by at least some, but trust me...You already know this way-too-overdone story.

This movie broke records in its time and I am still entertained by it; although, I admittedly have to say that some of the graphics did not stand up to the test of time. If only because it laid the foundation work for many other great…

I didn't mind that the plot was a rip-off of Dances with Wolves meets Fern Gully. I didn't mind that the, at first gorgeous, CGI aesthetic looses it's luster after thirty minutes into the movie. I didn't even mind that the actors, some…

Set in the year 2151 - This visually spectacular (yet emotionally haywire) tale of a ruthless rape attempt (by humans) of the planet Pandora for its valuable resources and the near-annihilation of the Na'vi peoples (an indigenous humanoid…

An extraordinarily visually arresting film (well, movie). The first half gives some hope that the story - a sometimes annoying, sometimes/ someways offensive, (but somewhat challenging too) mishmash of historical myths, mytho-poetic…

Such and underrated movie! I am blown away by how beautiful Pandora is and I seriously wish I could travel there and live there myself! Seriously, visually appealing movie!
