The film was very good looking. 3D makes things kind of blurry at times and a bit dim, but it's not as dim as previous modern 3D films such as Coraline and Beowulf. 3D also adds depth... as we know.

But besides that, everything else was pretty terrible. I couldn't wait to leave the theater.

Before I go on, I should let everyone know that I love sci fi. For those who may right me off as a Magnolia-type film buff, I love Star Wars, Doctor Who, District 9, T-2, and Bruce Campbell.

Also, I really wanted this movie to be great. I'm not one of those who automatically hates super-hyped movies.

Here's my list of problems:

Plot: Very thin, but it somehow managed to fill itself with holes... oh yeah, and it's Dances With Wolves in the future with blue cat people who act like the classic Hollywood version of "Africans." Holes include: Why did the blue cat people not kill the main character? Especially when they find out he's majorly responsible for the destruction of a lot of their land. How did the female blue cat lead know the protagonist in his human form?

Script: Predictable dialogue. So much was spoon fed to the audience. The precious rock is called Unobtanium and the sacred tree is called the Tree of Souls... come on! Give us something to think about here.

Characterization: Characters were very thin. I didn't care about them at all. The colonials were very one dimensional and the blue cat people were simple minded fools who needed a "civilized" man to save them from the problem he helped to create.

Acting: very terrible. It's hard to act well when the script is so bad.

I don't even feel like writing anymore because I'm getting bored thinking about this boring movie.
