Dear blog,
.

The most awaited promising movie has entered cinemas all over the world ! I asked my friend, Azizul to accompany me to the Empire Cinema to watch this new 3D film by the director of Terminator, Alien and TITANIC ! This 3 hours movie promises us a new dimension in the Hollywood's world. The acting, graphics and special effects are really impressive ! I rate this movie 5 out of 5

The movie tells us about Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), a paraplegic ex-marine who is given the chance to go to an alien planet called Pandora where corporate fat cats want to mine the planet for a precious material called 'Unobtanium' and is seen as the answer to Earth's energy crisis, the problem being though, is that the planet is home to an indigenous species called the Na'vi who don't want to give up their home.
.
Jake inhabits the form of an Avatar which is his mind inside a Na'vi body and his mission is to accompany scientists as a bodyguard however he is quickly recruited by Colonel Quaritch to infiltrate the Na'vi and learn their ways in order to get them to leave their home. Jake soon learns there is more to the locals than meets the eye and becomes torn between right and wrong.

One particular sequence that impressed me a lot is the banshee sequence, when Neytiri and Jake Sully fly together on the mythical bird creatures called Irkan through the forest of Pandora. It’s a cool sequence indeed.
