Am I the only person on this planet who didn’t think Avatar was the best movie of all time? While I can certainly agree that it pushes the boundaries of 3D and CGI graphics to a whole new level, the story seemed to be a blend of Pocahontas and The Last Samurai with a dash of Star Trek : Insurrection for good measure. The acting wasn’t anything out of this world (no pun intended), it was far too long (almost 3 hours!) and whoever thought “unobtanium” was a clever name for a supposedly-valuable mineral whose actual purpose is never really explained has obviously been watching far too many B-movies…
If you haven’t already gone to see the hype-fest that is Avatar, you needn’t bother. Either save your money or go and see Sherlock Holmes instead.
