It's 2:30 a.m. and I just got home from watching Avatar. All I can say is WOW!! It was amazing...pretty much all I thought it was going to be and more. James Cameron has an awesome imagination and the visuals in this film were crazy. I found out this movie has been 14 years in the making! That's crazy huh? It took that long for Cameron to develop the technology to bring his vision to life. In addition to the visuals he also ties everything together with a classic love story (which we've seen in some of his other films...umm Titanic anyone?) and it doesn't come off as being cheesy or corny. It was great!
When I got home tonight I couldn't stop thinking about the movie so I went to Rotten Tomatoes to look up some reviews of the film. It got an 83%. That's pretty good for a big budget movie like this one. Here is what some of the critics had to say:
"I have seen the future if movies, and it is Avatar." Tom Long
"It extends the possibilities of what movies can do. Cameron's talent may just be as big as his dreams." Peter Travers
The good reviews go on and on. Seriously if you only go see one movie over this holiday break, make it this one. I loved it. I want to go see it again on 3D, maybe on Sunday! Man, I won't be able to sleep tonight because I can't stop thinking about how good it was. I better try though because I have a wedding tomorrow ;)
