Inappropriate/Appropriate Movie Reviews: Avatar


Inappropriate:

I like the hot Terminator guy.  Easy on the eyes, but the movies, they are not so good!  In that way, he reminds me of my other favorite, the Stath.

Appropriate:
This fantasy epic packs the emotional & political simplicity of a Disney cartoon for children coupled with magical blacklight-glowing million dollar egotistical-director-guy visuals. Sure, it’s downright beautiful, Cameron’s writing and dialogue are often chortle-worthy in their simplicity. The bad guys are really bad. The good guys are really good. And blue. And the blue guys are living a peaceful existence on top of a ridiculously-named element called ‘Unobtanium’ desired by “the sky people”, namely us – depicted here as imperialistic, blood-thirsty corporate killers (hmm!). Despite the “big budget writing” (read: pretty silly writing) and the Mel  Gibson-y battle monologues, it’s easy to fall for the charms of Avatar, as it takes you soaring through an imaginary iridescent world teeming with life – and the 3D makes it feel even more immersive.

Still, it’s hard for me to say I disliked it, but just as hard to tell you to go see it.  How about this. It’s like a perfect bacon-wrapped filet mignon…stuffed with nacho cheese.  Some people will really wish they could eat that, THIS SECOND, and other people know they would never go there.
