| I'm seeing this Wednesday on IMAX 3-D at Coliseum. Wanna see it sooner as I've been hyped up for this too long, but I'm coordinating this with 8 other people. |

was entertaining throughout its whole length, but agree that the story was a bit lacking... the main character in particular.. he knew what he was doing the whole time - never had to make any tough decisions. although he switched teams, he had no inner struggle whatsoever, just did what any decent natured person would do as info was revealed to him, and tried to keep his blue gf from being pissed at him.
also a lot of pointless scenes that had no signifigance other than visual effects... ie. jake shows his incompetence because he can't ride the horse thing in front of the natives, then the exact same situation happens a couple scenes later with the pterodactyl thing, except we get to watch the girl fly it around for a bit... oooh, ahh.
but still, can't argue with how good those visual effects were - and was impressed with how well the 3d glasses actually work... and the story was still decent and well paced. give it 8/10 |

he didn't have any inner struggle because he didn't have anything to lose by switching teams - no legs, dead brother, etc etc

uuuh how was that useless? did you listen when she was explaining that the "bird" will try to kill him so he had to fight it, tame it, in order to bond with it? lol did you expect him to jump on top of it, BANG! off he goes? |

well, if they wanted "jakesully" to be mentioned in the same breath as neo, luke skywalker etc. they could have written him differently.. this guy was just forgettable overall imo which isn't great for a potential sci-fi franchise.

not going to get into the specific details of my example, but there were a lot of action scenes that were redundant and seem like they were just jammed in for the wow factor. just one unbelievable scene at 100mph and then another one that outdoes it, with hardly any emotion or meaningful dialogue going on between the characters. not that any of this is surprising for today's action/scifi films, but still disappointing as we know cameron doesn't need that crutch to make a good movie |
