I really waffled about seeing this movie until I heard how massive the box office has been. Definitely a must see in 3D as James Cameron intended it to be viewed. Get to the theater early since you don't want to watch from the front rows. Some parts dragged a little, but overall good pacing. Basic storyline predictable, but the setting is beyond normal imagination. Some scenes are too intense for younger children. My 8yr old niece cried at the last battle scene. 10yr old nephew enjoyed it a lot.
