I expected great effects with a so-so plot and cheesy dialogue. Instead, I was blown away by one of the most incredible movie experiences I have ever had. The 3D integration is rich and immerses you completely. The IMAX screen and massive sound enhances this nicely. The planet's vegetation, landscapes, creatures and natives are all unique works by master artists. The story was moving, realistic, and never broke its grip. While there are no crazy twists or groundbreaking plots, the overall flow is perfect. After 2 hours and 40 minutes, I could only think of two things: When I would see this again, and they better hurry on the sequel!
