I am jaded. My favorite films are the classics like Lawrence of Arabia, and also recent classics like Unforgiven. So for this my eyes were wide open. So while the story is a little on the simple side, I must say it is SO well presented and the 3D effects are so groundbreaking that it is simply the greatest film-going experience I have ever had. I've seen it twice and it was just as good the second time around, at least in the Imax Experience 3D version. James Cameron shows his film making skills, and his expertise with Science Fiction as he masterfully pulls you into anther world. It may be the most expensive film ever made, but all the money is up on the screen. A truly monumental achievement. 5-Stars.
