The special effects alone are worh the price of addmission and sitting for 2 hours and 40 minutes, That said, I can't help but make the connection between Avatar and Pocahantas, the story line is a tried and true one but with a twist and it's very good in my opinion but toward the end of the second hour, my body wanted to get up, I did not though because the beauty of this movie and the special effects made it impossible to leave...we all clapped at the end of the Movie....the entire audiance clapped, wow how cool is that? This was my second viewing, I had wanted my Son and his girlfriend to see Avatar and it was worth every penny even the second time around!
