"LAvatoire" would be a better name because that's where you'll want to visit after watching this shameful piece of corporate spinnery. The Jungle Book meets The Last of the Mohicans, Star Troopers and Aliens....The dialogue is the usual "cut-and-paste" stuff. Maybe the producers simply used a computer program to chop up other movie scripts which they already owned, change a few words, slap a new label on the box and then hired some CGI personnel. This seems more about creating maximum corporate shareholder profit then creating entertainment for the public (consumer).

The Na'vi look like something from one of Walt Disney's children's movies. Their silly tails function like USB cables linking them up to other animals and their tree network. Wow such imagination - NOT! Let's see.. toys, video games, t-shirts, and then theme parks... ka-ching... ka-ching! The two stars I gave this movie were for the talented CGI artists and modellers who I'm sure never got any significant portions of the massive profits.

I had very low expectations from the trailer but this blatant reference to "internet marketing" left me put off. I was rather disturbed that a monopoly like News Corporation can profit so much when there are so many excellent books to draw on and talented people out there who never get the opportunity to produce something intelligent because the "bottom line" is the only line these spin doctors can walk. If you want to see a recent science fiction movie that had a lot more heart and intelligence, I recommend "Moon" by Duncan Jones (original story) Nathan Parker (screenplay). When can be have a "good" non-violent sci-fi for grown-ups?
