It’s cinema Jim, but not as we know it.So here it is then, what has been in gestation in James Cameron’s mind for over 12 years finally hit the silver screen towards the back end of 2009. Made for gazillions amount of cash, Avatar went on to make a billion trillion in Worldwide receipts-and this before the rush rush release of DVD/BLU RAY sales are factored into the equation. The film, and all its technical wizardry, is quite simply a gargantuan piece of cinematic history. Released in 2d and 3d, and probably some other format that I’m forgetting, every advanced tool of the trade has been utilised by Cameron and his team to create what is now the ultimate popcorn blockbuster. Shame then, that away from the visual extravaganza the film is as shallow as this review will ultimately end up being.
No doubt about it, this is a joy for the eyes and ears, the minuscule details are wonderful and the colour positively pings from every frame. But in the eagerness to create such splendour they forgot to put any substance into the writing. This is plot simplicity. And even its messages, as Cameron smugly preaches his sermon from the pulpit, now seem old hat. Do we really need another boink over the head about eco invasion? Or a curt reminder of American infiltration into some land where motives are suspicious at best? No we don’t really do we? Worse still is some of the dialogue, which quite frankly could have come from some playground encounter as the kiddies play kiss chase or bang bang your dead army. There’s also a sense of familiarity with other better scripted film’s, Dances *cough* With *cough* Wolves *cough* It’s as if Cameron just knew that narrative structure wasn’t as important as having the expensive gimmicks. He’s like a modern day William Castle-only with considerably more readies at his disposal.
The cast are OK, Zoe Saldana puts a sexy feistiness to her blue alien Neytiri, Sam Worthington keeps the humanistic elements just about above water, while Sigourney Weaver is as ever the consummate professional. But ironically, in a film shimmering bright in 2d & 3d, the characters are all one dimensional. None more so than Stephen “The Party Crasher” Lang’s Colonel. A man so gruff and gung-ho menacing he really ought to be in Sly Stallone’s upcoming testo movie The Expendables. Nominated for nine Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director, it won three, for Best Cinematography, Best Visual Effects, and Best Art Direction. Those were richly deserved. They also tell us all we need to now about Cameron’s Behemoth. 5/10
Avatar is an overwhelming, immersive spectacle. The state-of-the-art 3D technology draws us in, but it is the vivid weirdness of Cameron’s luridly imagined tropical other world that keeps us fascinated. I like this film and I have written many review for essay writing service. The special effects are so good here that you don’t even notice them. It is eerie how Cameron has made it look and feel like he is just pointing a camera at the action.
Even if it is sporadically decent or fun, it’s mostly a bore
A crashing bore. There is almost no real reason to see this film. As you could probably tell from the previews or other plot descriptions, it is a virtual remake of Dances with Wolves, but starring elongated, CGI, blue aliens. Yet even that movie wasn’t nearly as patronizing with its noble savage bullcrap. I am not exaggerating when I say I have almost never seen a less imaginative movie. But what about the visuals, you say? Well, they are pretty, and the CGI is better than it has ever been in the past. But I’d say it isn’t even close to a huge step forward. A pretty tiny step, really, from The Lord of the Rings’ Gollum. The (motion captured) faces look more expressive than Gollum’s. But they still have far to go before the CGI creations look “photo-realistic”, as the idiotic Cameron likes to describe his cartoon characters and settings. And they still haven’t worked out just how to move CGI characters – they still don’t look like they exist in any kind of real world outside of a computer hard drive. But I guess by now I have to accept filmmakers are always going to rely on CGI, and it’s always going to look like a cartoon. I have to say, I did mostly enjoy it when Cameron was introducing new jungle creatures (I think the final tally is about nine different species of animals that live on the planet), but both the flora and the fauna are reminiscent of black light posters and prog-rock album covers (I’ll credit Jim Emerson for tipping me toward that, but I knew even in the previews that everything looked a little too familiar). And the N’avi? They’re Native Americans. Cameron’s allegory is easily the thinnest I’ve ever seen in a major motion picture. Some critics have argued about how it allegorically relates to current American military woes, but, frankly, if Cameron intended any of it, he screws it up royally by making the N’avi 100% justified in whatever they do. It’s every bit as black and white as anything George W. Bush ever said. I’m sure he loves the Hell out of this film. And, even if I tried to just shut off my brain (pretty impossible), so much of the ride is uneventful. If not for the film’s final half hour, which is comprised of the big battle, I’d probably call this the worst film of the year. As it is, I’d probably rather sit through Transformers 2 again. At least I can marvel at the audaciousness of Michael Bay’s tastelessness. It’s better than Cameron’s utter blandness.
