The Savage Way

When I heard of James Cameron’s “Avatar” for the first time, the impression could’ve hardly been worse. Which movie could possibly dare to steal away the heading title from my most favorite movie series of all time?

Time passed and I silently cursed at my computer screen every time I saw the slightest advertisement of it. It just has to be a very bad movie, hasn’t it? I mean, look at the dumb looking creatures on the posters, am I right?

The release date finally arrived and the movie entered the Internet Movie Data Base’s ranking of top 250 movies at a ridiculous 21st place. There is just no way this movie “earned” it’s 8.8 rating, no fucking way. I already knew the ugly truth- I had to watch the movie, whether or not I wanted to. Forgive me my imdb-orientation, if you want to argue with me about its reliability, just go ahead, wouldn’t be the first time my opponent ran out of arguments*.

Well, today was the day, actually I was quite curious about the movie. Certainly we decided to watch it in 3D, as it seemed really predestined for it.

And who would have guessed, “Avatar” totally blew me away. It was not for the unusual story or the deep character development, as the critics may add, but because of the endless beauty of the whole fictitious planet Pandora. I never thought that a movie could be that good, just because it was well-made. I highly recommend this piece of art to everyone who is willing to get into a very unique and special world without any compare.

If you already thought of watching the movie, do it. Tomorrow would be best. If you don’t have the money, steal it, it’s worth it.

This Review practically says it all.
