Coming soon...

The review you've all been waiting for: can millions of movie-goers worldwide really be dumber than a post?


Is Avatar anything more than a video game on steroids?


Will hairy hottie Sam Worthington, er, pull it off?


Come back soon -- well, when I can be bothered, anyway -- and find out what I really thought of it. You know you need to know.

Written by 10 year olds for 10 year olds and brilliantly marketed to 10 year olds but still Hollywood tripe (and that is to malign tripe, especially cooked with onions and white sauce like Mum used to make). There! I've saved you putting keyboard to cyberspace. :-)

I thoroughly enjoyed Avatar. Maybe it was the bright colours, maybe it was the handsome fella (Sam Worthington, maybe?) in both human fleshy tones and the Avatar bluishness, or that it was a love story. I can tell you, though that it wasn't the stupid headache inducing 3D specs I had to wear for what seemed like an age. Having said that, I reckon the headache was worth it.

well, the plot is basically right straight from "Fern Gully" as well as several other plotlines - that said, I did see it on a big big screen and in 3D, and I really thought it was visually quite entertaining - enough that I would like to see it one more time at an Imax - I am old enough to have seen "House of Wax" in 3D right there in London about 1953 - the moviemaking technology these days is amazing - by the way, did you notice that the transformed humans were the only ones with 4 digits plus thumb?
