The plot was a poor imitation of The Emerald Forest. That movie had much more humanity to it, along with the same ecological message as Avatar. I was very unhappy at having spent the unreasonably long time seeing the precisely same movie as Emerald Forest. If I were the producer/director/screenwriter for Emerald Forest, I would be calling my Intellectual Property lawyer to sue for copyright infringement. The only compensating factor were the technicals, i.e. the special effects: forest, mountains and animals. I saw it in 3D with my brother (62) and my daughter (25). Both had the same overall negative view, though neither had seen Emerald Forest.
