Avatar is No Matrix, but still a "Must See"
Posted: Jan 05, 2010

As for the movie, the story was a little lacking (which apparently Cameron tried to make up for with length) but if you can get through slow pace and the unbelievable setup in the first hour, then you can sit back and enjoy the last hour and half. The is nothing mind blowing about this story like we saw in The Matrix, but the special effects are simply amazing. I saw it in 3D which looks amazing most of the time, but also hurts my eyes in others so while I can do without that, the computer animation is simply believable (not unbelievable like in the aforementioned Star Wars. You can't tell where the actors end and the computer begins.
It is expensive, but this is a movie you need to see on the big screen.
