The special effects were incredible. The forest and animal scenes kept me mesmerized. The movie moved very fast, and in 3-D IMAX the screen sometimes seemed to go out of focus due to the very fast pace. The story was predictable, a futurestic version of the Calvery vs the Indians. The battle scenes were very loud, my husband and I could bearly stand it. I did love the AVATARS --beautiful creatures! The continuous violence was over the top. I did not enjoy this. I caution anyone taking children.
