Excellent Effects, Derivative Story

Absolutely amazing effects - you've never seen such subtle emotions displayed on the faces of CGI characters. The world of Pandora is mesmerizing. The story is so-so. It is essentially Dances with Wolves in space, mixed with other themes you've seen a million times. Instead of evil white man v. noble savage in tune with Mother Earth with a single soldier getting won over, we have evil mankind v. noble alien savage in tune with Mother Pandora with a soldier and scientists getting won over. Still, its easy to overlook the inherent self-loathing and enjoy the movie. I highly recommend seeing this in 3D or Imax - don't wait for Netflix or you will be missing the very point of the Avatar experience.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
