Movie makes you think

This documentary was definitely intriguing and manages to be both what you expect and not what you expect. This film gave me a lot of food for thought after watching it in terms of how social networking has altered modes of communication and how this has impacted society on not just a technological level, but on an emotional and interpersonal level. And furthermore, I think it also unearths the fact that online social networking does subject us to invasions of privacy, identity theft, and other personal attacks/intrusions/affiliations that can easily be unknown or disguised. A very interesting film.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Worth it for the special effects

The story is predictable and obvious, of course, and it's irritating that James Cameron has to be so literal at times, mining the mineral "unobtainium" for instance. But, through the protagonist's Avatar, one is definitely taken into the story, and it is a compelling, although unoriginal, story. It also has a very paternalistic attitude, but what can you expect from a Westerner's point of view. It is an experience unlike any other moviegoing experience to-date, so it certainly is the "Star Wars" of this generation. In that respect, I will say, James Cameron has achieved his objective. But, do I think it's the best film I've ever seen? No. Worth the money to see it in IMAX 3D? Yes.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I thought this film was moving, heartbreaking, inspiring, and thought-provoking. It follows the lives of three women who have committed themselves to making a difference in their communities in the face of extreme adversity and poverty.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
