The Avatar : Get ready to be Avatar-ed !

Hi, I am Shashank, your normal student guy here with the review of the Avatar. From now on on this blog, I will also be presenting reviews, rating them and will tell you guys to give it a hit or throw it away. My first review, here goes !

James Cameron's TITANIC was something that everyone loved. It had the complete elements for a movie and I don't need to name them. And everyone expected something out of Avatar,the most hyped movie of 2009.Yes, Avatar is out and is really good, but doesn't even come under the Titanic League ! There are Awesome special effects, hard hitting dialogues, good voice-overs and not to forget, the ACTION but it doesnt have the Titanic Magic !

THE WHOLE PLOT : It is basically about an other planet Pandora where soldiers from the world are sent to obtain a metal called Uptanainium, something very valuable (sells at 20m per piece!). Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) is one of the many soldiers present who have come to claim their share. This world is protected by Na'pi, and as you watch them you are reminded of African tribes in blue paint ! Jake along with a team is sent as a spy to make them go down without a fight and his loyalties are tested as he has to decide to save the Na'pi and Mother Nature or give all this up and stay with the winning side. What happens to him and the Na'pi is something you will find out at the theatre !

THE GOOD POINTS : Awesome, i mean it, awesome special effects ! Watch it in IMAX 3D for all the fun. Really good cast and you also get to see Michelle Rodriguez(surprise!) in the movie.(Letty in F&F). Very impressive acting by Zoe Saldan, while I think Sam needs a little acting lesson on his emotions.

THE BAD POINTS : Not anything really; except that James Cameron after 11 years; we expected hell out of this movie but those fell short.

RATING : ***1/2 [*=Sucks!,**=Best on a DVD,***=One time watch,****=Watch it !]

Watch or forget ? : Definitely a watch !
