Avatar Movie Review
Rediff Rating: 4.5/5

Avatar is a tremendously entertaining film. It is a huge WOW and an amazing display of high technology, although once again overriding the drama and the script. It is a sensory, emotional feeling — the experience of being inside and participating in a two and a half hour long video game, with tall blue aliens called the Na’vi, creepy lizard like flying creatures that can be tamed, other scary monsters, lush plant life, big huge ‘shock and awe’ like war sequences between the natives using bows and arrow and evil Earthlings, motivated by profit, and then also some nice tender romantic moments.
