Today is finally the day, where I will be able to watch the second installment of James Cameron’s “Avatar”!
This movie was definitely thee highlight of this year! Can’t believe it’s been 13 years since the first time we got introduced to Pandora.
This movie starrs Sam Worthington (“The Last Son”), Zoe Saldana (“Amsterdam”), Sigourney Weaver (“Call Jane”), and the old cast.
This movie was directed by thee James Cameron.
This movie was released on December 16th 2022. It was rated PG-13 for violence, intense action, nudity and language.
This movie is a Fantasy/Sci-Fi/an Action/adventure.
Onto the premise: Jake Sully lives with his newfound family formed on the extrasolar moon Pandora. Once a familiar threat returns to finish what was previously started, Jake must work with Neytiri and the army of the Na’vi race to protect their home.
Wow, James Cameron did it again! Holy moly!
It’s hard to believe the sequel to Avatar has actually come out. After 13 years and what feels like half-a-dozen delays, it’s officially here.
As someone who was surprised by how much that 2009 movie held up on a recent viewing, and therefore had high expectations for a sequel, I’d say it lived up to the hype. Maybe it’s a little less great, but I’d have to sit with it a little while longer before I could be sure.
First of all, this movie is long. 192 minutes long. I didn’t feel the length, in all honesty. I got wrapped up in the movie and how it looked and sounded so much that it probably could have gone on another hour and I still wouldn’t have felt restless. It’s one of the best-paced 3+ hour movies I’ve ever seen… and you could argue it’s even paced a little too fast in the first act, thanks to a time-skip that means the viewer has to be caught up to speed quickly.
Visually and effects-wise, it’s perfect. Numerous expensive blockbusters are released every year, but few are given the time that Avatar 2’s clearly been given. As such, it looks leagues better than any other $100 million-plus movie released in the last few years.
Story-wise, I’d say it’s a little less predictable than the first, which has a story that seems to bother some people.
If anything, James Cameron might only be criticised for borrowing too much from himself – introducing child characters made me think of “ Terminator 2”, on top of that the child actors were amazing, while parts of the action scenes in Avatar 2 will look a little familiar to anyone who’s seen “Titanic”.
There’s a little corny dialogue, a couple of slightly clunky scenes early on, and a lack of a definitive climax, seeing as there are more sequels planned.
The strengths of this movie are overwhelming, and make this a must-watch in cinemas. It just felt great to see a blockbuster like this again; it’s been a while.
Let’s get straight to the point, this is a James Cameron project, you will obviously see lot of water, the guy has put in everything he has learned over the years form his projects.
Coming to the plot, yes it’s a very simple plot. Nothing new, family is more important; they stay together, fight together. This I’m telling in simple words, but James will make you emotional watching it on screen.
In my opinion, “Avatar 2” stands for itself than one; it’s a buildup for the 3rd.
This experience is visually stunning. It simply has to be seen on the biggest screen possible in 3d. That’s the best way to enjoy this movie, just let it consume you.
The story is one that most people can get behind and it’s enhanced by the visual storytelling on screen. I can’t say more without spoilering anything!
I’m not saying the story is perfect but the 3 hour+ runtime helped flesh out all of the characters and give the story depth and weight that you only really get with TV series theses days.
Honestly there could be a few plot holes but I don’t really care. If you’re looking to nitpick this movie then maybe you should rethink your life just and enjoy one of the most gorgeous pieces of art this world has ever produced. Just think of how much work was put into this and how amazing it feels.
Stay tuned for more reviews!
