Given all the hype about this movie I expected better. The special effects were great and it was visually beautiful, but it's unfortunate that some of the creativity that went into creating the artwork didn't go into the plotline. The plot was very simplistic, black and white, "good" (scientists and indigenous peoples) vs. "bad" (big business and military). Come on, NONE of the indigenous people wanted to make a fortune from the natural resources on their planet? NONE of the business men/ex-military forces were concerned about destroying a culture to get at the resources? This could have been a much more interesting movie.
