Jurassic Park meets Star Wars? Not exactly but something like that. If you enjoyed Jurassic Park though, then you'll enjoy this more.
I was reluctant to go see this movie based on the blue people and the sci-fi vibe, but it has so many Oscar nominations (9) I couldn't avoid it any longer.
The story had everything in it including tragedy, a warmonger, an unlikely hero, a love story, the underlying "care for our earth" tone and yes plenty of science fiction or fantasy built in. Most of all it has amazing special effects. The lush green landscape of Pandora is a feast for the eyes and the costumes or whatever they use to produce the blue people was very detailed down to accessories they all adorned. You can tell a lot of time and effort went into this film.
It's a little over three hours long which was also a bit of a deterrent in my book, but admittedly, I enjoyed every minute of it. I can think of a redundant war scene that could have been cut if I were the Director, but I'm not so we'll just leave that to the pros. I have to give it 5 out of 5 stars.
Happy movie watching.
