I didn't know what to expect from watching the trailers for this movie, but my mom wanted to go, so I went too. We got into the theater and once the humans arrive on Pandora, it was as if I was there too. The effects were amazing, the storyline thoughtful, the characters realistic. Definitely one of James Cameron's best pieces!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I have to say, this movie did not fill up to my expectations with the context but the art was, breathtaking! I swear it was so realistic it almost seemed like the creatures could be real!
The movie was really slow at first, pretty boring, but then it got progressively better. Towards the end, wow. I didn't breathe towards the end! It was superb!
Though the movie was a drag at first, the ending made up for it! :) I promise
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The story is engaging, the acting is done extremely well and the animation was beyond compare. After thirty seconds I was no longer aware that the characters were CGI. The scenery and backgrounds are well suited to the IMAX and 3D formats.
Everything associated with the film was done with the highest quality. Great Flick for preteens and older.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The movie did not have much complicated story line but it was based on single line story with moral . The moral was war and greed never gives better results, Mother earth have lot of resourceses for human , so that he can remain human but becoing a part of nature . Do not get addicted to machines rather get addicted to nature.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This story line is finished before it gets started. We remember the end as soon as we realize the setting, since the writing is so trite, it's a fairy tale that can be told in 30 minutes - and what grownup 70's buff wouldn't like psychedellic forest scenes with ignorance promoted as bravery? Why bother with all those old fashioned space ships & army battalion fighting, when 150 yrs from now, lazer, tazers and more sophisticated methods would surely ensue? The only spectacular thing about this movie is how so many people are nostalgic about Schwartzenegger style impossible flights & fights with a hero that can be transferred into another body?! OK it's pretty, but... where's the substance??
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Good movie. This movie (the storyline) has elements from the following other movies: Dances with Wolves, Lord of the Rings, Aliens, Gorillas in the Mist and the game World of Warcraft (the zone Nagrand in Outland specifically). Make sure you go early to get a good seat, they fill up really fast, buy the tickets in advance. Fun to watch, great special effects, good editing. Powerful message and a sad story, directed at those who refuse to learn from the past.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This movie has everything - an excellent (and historically relevant) plot, very good acting, and incredible CGI. The CGI characters are so real that they virtually become actors in their own right, worthy of autographs and Hollywood recognition. Pandora is now on my "bucket list' of vacation spots - LOL!

The story was actually really good, not necessarily my type of movie, but really enjoyable. The sound was incredible and the visuals were out of this world. While the 3d isn't the gimmicky things flying toward you, it was very impressive. I think this will be one of those films that will always be remembered.

I went into the film not expecting much. I like fantasy/action films a lot, but the trailer didn't seem to intrigue me. But once I sat down the movie just kept getting better and better. The action was never-ending and the landscapes were majestic. I loved the story and the very human portrayal of the na'vi. I didn't want the movie to end. Overall - fantastic.

Kudos - the entire production crew!
The concept, the settings (creation), th eplot - typical American arrogance and wanton destruction in acquiring its goals, the cast, the acting, the technology. a message to the greedy, the packaging was all perfect.
Although the expectations from IMAX 3D (AMC Potomac, Woodbridge, VA) - just a larger screen (I have not seen the movie in regular 3D) left me wanting for a better product.
I want to watch the movie all over again to absorb the movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The hours that must of gone into creating all those interesting creatures. The story itself reflects stories taken from history, from this continent and others as well.

Similar to the groundbreaking filming of Kubrick's "2001 - A Space Odyssey", Avatar is visually and sound wise a stunning film -- that quite apart from the plot & message, make the film well worth 2hrs & 40 minutes of your time, particularly if you see it in IMAX 3D. The high-tech glasses were a nuisance to wear (over my own glasses), but I guess that's the price to pay for a phenomenal 3D experience given the current state of the art. The acting of the "real" actors & the animated characters was great (I'm 55 and have always been a S. Weaver fan from "Alien" days). The plot & message were classic Sci-Fi, and brought a tear or two to some in the audience & a fair number of loud rejoicing yells during the battle scenes from others!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Avatar is a feast for the eyes and well worth seeing to experience the amazing world James Cameron and his army of technicians have created. The problem is it's also a famine for the mind. The plot is hackneyed and totally predictable. The characters are one-dimensional.
