The Plot: The story’s hero is Jake Sully, a former Marine confined to a wheelchair. Bitter and disillusioned, he’s still a warrior at heart. All Jake ever wanted was something worth fighting for, and he finds it in the place he least expected: on a distant world. Jake has been recruited to join an expedition to the moon Pandora, which corporate interests are strip-mining for a mineral worth $20 million per kilogram on Earth. To facilitate their work, the humans use a link system that projects a person’s consciousness into a hybrid of humans and Pandora’s indigenous humanoids, the Na’vi. This human-Na’vi hybrid – a fully living, breathing body that resembles the Na’vi but possesses the individual human’s thoughts, feelings and personality – is known as an “avatar.”

In his new avatar form, Jake can once again walk. His mission is to interact with and infiltrate the Na’vi with the hope of enlisting their help – or at least their acquiescence – in mining the ore. A beautiful Na’vi female, Neytiri, saves Jake’s life, albeit reluctantly, because even in his avatar body, Jake represents to her the human encroachment on the Na’vi’s unspoiled world.

As Jake’s relationship with Neytiri deepens, along with his respect for the Na’vi, he faces the ultimate test as he leads an epic conflict that will decide nothing less than the fate of an entire world.

My Review: I remember watching T2 when i was younger and being left in awe when it was said and done. There has been amazing movies since then, but nothing that left me breathless as Avatar did. James Cameron is back in a big way and Avatar is proof of that. From the beginning to end this film is amazing visually and story wise.

This movie pulls you in so deep even from the beginning as the story is rich. Watching Jake go from (as he is called in the beginning of the film) a “baby” to one of the tribe members was great. I love the twist Cameron gave to all of the wildlife on the planet all aquatic based life forms in ways you could never imagine . While you can see the end coming after about half of the movie it doesn’t bring down the film at all.You are pulling for the Na’vi the whole film as Cameron’s hidden message hits your heart hard.

I recommend this film to all who truly love film. You will never forget anything you seen in this movie.
