This film has everything you would expect of a typical blockbuster. It has accomplished what it has set out to do in becoming one of the most technically astounding films. The graphics and detail of the movie are amazing. 3D adds a nice touch, but still has a ways to go before wide adoption in the cinema industry. Scientific accuracy is also not neglected. Further, the plotline is nothing terribly exciting, but is exotic and complex enough that the viewer is drawn into the story. Cameron, in Avatar, has achieved all-around success in movie-making, but ultimately, fails to convey why such level of detail and technical aspects to moviemaking are necessary when all one really needs are good writers.
