My Take on the Movie Avatar

After the holidays, Hubby and I were finally able to watch the movie Avatar. A lot of friends recommended that we watch it in 3D but we were too lazy to call the movie house and have our tickets reserved. We even had a hard time scheduling this movie date, let alone buy movie tickets in advance.

The movie was long. But I had fun watching it. I didn't get bored and I was looking forward to every scene. It was way different from Titanic which was also directed by James Cameron but I wasn't surprised when I heard that it would surpass the number of ticket sales as against the movie Titanic. Even if I haven't seen the movie in 3D, I still liked it and would want to watch it again.

The storyline if I think about it now is very simple. There are even parts of the story that I didn't like much. But the effects were fantastic and the cinematography was amazing. This deserves a "Best Picture" award, I must say.

I realized after watching it that the casts of the movie weren't even that popular. Except for Sigourney Weaver who starred Alien and other movies. But the movie was a success! If you haven't seen it, do watch it, it's definitely worth the time!
