Avatar hadn’t been on my radar for long when I saw it. I knew the plot involved a foreign world with dexterous humanoids, and a paraplegic with the ability to become one of these creatures. I expected an adventure movie with emphasize on the main character being sort of liberated from regular life.
My loose forecast was met. The story isn’t very complex, and you get a feeling of knowing where the ship is heading from early on. Something I didn’t see coming, however, was the focus on a newcomer being accepted in society. Nor did I expect a love story to be such a big part of the film.
To sum up, I left the cinema happy and recommend seeing it if you haven’t already. The sound and graphics are astounding, making it worth catching it on big screen.
