Magical backpacking in the wilderness

Very good on screen IMAX movie going experience and according to my wife apparently worth the split into two movies. That is to say the producers got more of the details from the book into the storyline by making it into two movies. The story is darker but compelling and true to life in that you see more if it through the eyes of the three main heroes. Most of the action takes place in remote forests and other desolate locations but the cinematography is brilliant.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Colonialism in 3-D

This movie is typically what you'd expect from James Cameron. It’s got brilliant special effects and design. However, the storyline is non-existent and there is no real plot. Even though it is set in the future the movie does nothing to show mankind in a better light. Apparently, even in the future there is no united earth government and the name of the game is still loot and plunder and corporate profits. The storyline superimposes western society’s limited understanding of tribal cultures on an alien race and makes horrible assumptions about the compatibility of human anatomy with everything alien. Essentially a 3-D futuristic cowboy versus indians movie set in space.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
