I was never a fan of the first avatar movie and this one had me bored half to sleep with clunky acting and awkward dialogue within the first half hour. The action sequences involving the military were exciting but the jungle and water scenes were really rather dull. Towards the end of the movie, last 45 mins, all I wanted was for it to end. Story easily could've been told in a couple hours.

However I was willing to give this movie a chance given the hype around its visual effects and beautiful cinematography. I was disappointed here too. The effects were too vibrant to the point they looked cartoony and I was never fully convinced by the cgi to the point I could ignore it. The landscapes are epic and of large scale but I still feel the world was empty.

Poor showing from Cameron.
