Movie Review Of Avatar

"Avatar" is a sci-fi movie featuring the intense battle between the humans and the Na'vi tribe, who inhabited a planet called "Pandora". There were 15 clans and 2000 warriors. The humans had discovered some precious and valuable material on the planet and attempted to drive off the native humanoid race out of Pandora. They deployed Marine Jake Sully, a war veteran who was paraplegic to gain information about the Na'vis using an avatar identity. He was being placed into a capsule and a Na'vi controlled by his mind was created. However, when he saw through the evil intentions of Colonel Quaritch, he refused to help and stood by the Na'vi tribe's side. Later, Colonel Quaritch led a fleet of planes and bombed Pandora, killing many members of the Na'vi tribe and destroyed the largest tree in the world. The Na'vi tribe's homeland was destroyed and the Na'vis who survived were determined to seek vengeance. In the control centre, there was internal conflict and some of the people working there switched side and went to help the Na'vi tribe. Led by Jake, the Na'vi tribe defeated Colonel Quaritch's squad and regained their peaceful lives back again. In the process, Colonel Quaritch was shot dead by two arrows while controlling a gigantic robot.

I liked the movie very much as the graphics were simply fantastic and the sceneries on Pandora were breathtaking. The living things in Pandora were also exotic, such as a mushroom-like plant that would shrink when being touched, and this grabs the audience's attention. The movie also illustrated the unity of the Na'vi tribe and their lifestyles. This was the first time that I watched a 3D movie. It was a truly unique experience because when I put on the 3D glasses, some scenes seemed to be happening right in front of my eyes! The movie is the best among all the movies that I have watched so far. I believe that the movie would be etched in my mind perpetually, thus I strongly recommend those who have not watched the movie or enjoyed a 3D movie experience to watch this movie!
