Avatar

When his brother is killed in a robbery, paraplegic Marine Jake Sully decides to take his place in a mission on the distant world of Pandora. There he learns of greedy corporate figurehead Parker Selfridge's intentions of driving off the native humanoid "Na'vi" in order to mine for the precious material scattered throughout their rich woodland. In exchange for the spinal surgery that will fix his legs, Jake gathers intel for the cooperating military unit spearheaded by gung-ho Colonel Quaritch, while simultaneously attempting to infiltrate the Na'vi people with the use of an "avatar" identity. While Jake begins to bond with the native tribe and quickly falls in love with the beautiful alien Neytiri, the restless Colonel moves forward with his ruthless extermination tactics, forcing the soldier to take a stand - and fight back in an epic battle for the fate of Pandora.
 Avatar is actually a movie that was showed in the cinema two years ago! I remembered I watch this movie in 3D! The effects were awesome. I really felt that I was at the other planet, Pandora! However the movie was too long, at least for me. :/ Sitting down for 2hours40mins is no joke.

What help compensate the long timing is of course the plot! :D It was extremely exciting. How the love blossomed between Jake and the Na'vi girl. If only Jake wasn't human... :B

Anyway, this movie was very popular! Based on US Box Office alone, they earned $760.5M! :D Furthermore, the average rating for this movie is 4.2/5 which is considered very good! :)


You can't possibly miss such an awesome movie right? So go catch it now! :D
