AVATAR; In 2154, the US military landed on Pandora, the the Earth-sized moon in space. Their goal is to extract the highly needed minerals from Pandora's soil. But first they have to fight foreign peace loving-natives resettle them, or destroy them with their spies and bombs.
And I thought it was the Titanic's job to sink the Titanic! Now, this time James Cameron chooses to play god and creates a whole new world with breathtaking exquisite finesse, aesthetics and attention to detail. In terms of sheer technology, Avatar marks the coming of age of both CGI and 3D cinema with its art house special effects and its shock and awe treatment.
On the one hand, it`s the sheer iridescence of the canvas and the never before contours of the creatures, the flora, the fauna flying across the screen that makes you marvel at how computers can augment creativity; on the other, it is the umpteen times you jump back to avoid the arrows, the guns or slide away from the floating dandelions and fierce raptors that leaves you completely Mesmerized with this brand new cinematic experience. Truly, Cameron's vision of Pandora is pure art, with its tall, wide eyed, slender, blue Navi people, it's postmodern creatures and its verdant greens
But more than all this, it is Cameron's cry against war and violence that makes Avatar an eloquent testimonial to the present. Mercifully, the film isn't visual extravaganza alone; it has a meaningful story too that could end up making this magnum opus a modern day parable for pacifists, climatologists, humanists, globalists.... Filmmakers have openly condemned and clarified American expansionism since 9/11. It's the only way you justify taking something like that from them! "Minerals, here. Oil in the real world.
It's a simple story, told directly. In this futuristic world, US troops discover a source of precious minerals in Pandora, a distant moon orbiting the stars. They want to send their troops to tame the Navi natives before mining the minerals. But before they send daisy cutters and rocket launchers, they infiltrate peace-loving races and go to Navi's look-alikes (they call them avatars) to learn about their weaknesses and strengths. I will send you a changed human. Join Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), a paraplegic marine who has been promised a pair of legs to betray Pandora's pacifists. It doesn't take long for Jake to fall in love with the beautiful daughter of the Navi chief, Zoe, and turn his own people into villains. In particular, his boss, Colonel Miles (Stephen Lang), is a sneaky and creepy Warmonger who treats all non-Americans as "a bite of a tree-dwelling fly," so I can't really blame him. can not. Avatar is a complete cinematic experience featuring cinematographer Mauro Fiore, music director James Horner, and special effects master.
