If you love to escape into other exotic worlds through the medium of film then you will simply love Avatar the movie. That’s why I made it a priority to get the Avatar movie reviewed and written up as soon as possible.
We all loved the totally sci-fi fantasy of blockbusters such as the Star Wars series and also more recently the Lord of the Rings trilogy. We sat amazed at captivated as we where given a window into new worlds, occupied by fantastic creatures and civilizations. Rightly so both as of the above titles where pioneers in the use of CGI and special effects, creating a new genre of movie epics.
Well imagine all of the above on steroids and you have Avatar.
The film Avatar was written and produced by award winning director James Cameron aka Iron Jim who already has an impressive string of movies to his name including big films such as Terminator the futuristic blockbuster starring Arnold Schwarzenegger to name but one. He also went on to do the sequels along with of huge hit movies such as Aliens.
The plot of the movie tells the story of an unsuspecting paraplegic ex-soldier who finds himself caught up in the exotic world of Pandora. His initial motives where to replace his brother killed in a robbery and to raise some money in order to get treatment for his own medical condition in order to regain the use of his legs. Although this is soon forgotten about as he takes on the form of an Avatar, his own mind in an alien body. The plot unfolds as he becomes with an indigenous race the Na’vi who are fighting to protect their homelands from corporate destruction.
The film took around 10 years to make and in this humble film-viewers opinion was time well spent. As well as having an interesting storyline the depth and scope of the effects is simply breath taking. In fact in order to even think about taking everything in the film has to be watched on a big screen. The colours are vibrant and you genuinely feel that you are lost completely in another world.
