The biggest, the greatest, the most visually stunning and the most popular piece of shit ever made. Directed by one of the greatest directors, a director that has given us great cgi animation in all of his movies. His name is James Cameron. He has directed great movies like "Aliens", "Titanic" and "Terminator 2". I used to love this guy, but after the abomination called "Avatar" he is now my worst enemy. And now that a Avatar quadrilogy is about to be made, I'm losing faith in mankind. How can people enjoy, a movie with the exact same plot as "Ferngully: The Last Rainforest", "Dances With Wolves", "Pocahontas" and many more.. This is a movie for people that like to be entertained, and that don't care about good story telling (a dumb person that likes explosions and shiny stuff). 

The plot is as simple as a five year old kids drawing. Humans are super "evil" and only care about money. There's a group of native people, in this instance are the natives some blue cats from some planet. The natives are strong and proud, but they need the "white man" to save the day (Rasist, and pathetic).The "white man" from the corporation that wants to fudge over the natives. This "white man" has no training, but is given an expensive limited avatar, because he has the same genetics as his twin brother. His twin brother was supposed to to go on this mission, but his dead or something (omg this is dumb). The "white man" then chooses to help the natives fight against the humans. The rest of the movie is explosions and expensive cgi.

The movie stars an assemble of bad and annoying actors. The actors brings nothing to this movie, non of the characters have anything interesting characteristics. The man character that I referred as "the white man" is played by the untalented actor Sam Worthington (The poor mans action hero). One of the main characters is played by the annoying, "tough", actress known as Michelle Rodriguez. Her character in this movie is the same as all of her other characters from all the projects she has been on tough annoying and lesbian? The last character im going to write about is the character played by Sigourney Weaver. She's the only think in this movie that I enjoy, she's badass as usual. She's been in "Aliens" so it's kindy cool that Cameron brought her along to this travesty. 

I usually don't like when movies use cgi animation, especially when it's not needed. Practical effects are way cooler and usually looks more real. That doesn't mean that I'm totally against cgi, "Avatar" would not be possible without cgi and the movie does look good. I give the movie 
4.5/10
