Rating: 10 out of 10, I was wondering if all the time and
effort Cameron spent on this sequel would be worth it. It is, and then some. I
should have known after the revelation that was Terminator 2 but all the many
years of work were readily apparent on the screen as we returned to Pandora. On
Pandora no one is ever really, seriously dead so both Sigourney Weaver and the
lead bad guy return, in spades. It’s a great adventure taking place 15 years
after the original with the Na'vi now faced with a determined and upgunned
human invasion. Jake takes his family to supposed safety with an ocean based
clan. He’s faced with fighting a guerilla war as well as teenaged offspring,
learning one is much tougher than the other. The persistent message of living
in harmony with their natural world is still present but not as overpowering as
the first film. The technology is so seamless and impressive that you really
forget this was all generated on a computer and completely suspend disbelief. A
truly massive achievement.
MVP: Saldana as
Neytiri who I would not want to have pissed off at me
