Avatar

"There is still at least one man in Hollywood who knows how to spend $250 million, or was it $300 million, wisely. 'Avatar' is not simply a sensational entertainment, although it is that. It's a technical breakthrough. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)" 

"The film vibrates with the excitement of discovery and awe. Not just for the sight of six-legged rhinos and butterfly-hued dragons, but for the thousands of hours of work that unite here in a creative epiphany (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)" 

"The King of the World sets his sights on creating another world entirely in 'Avatar,' and it's very much a place worth visiting. (...) delivers unique spectacle, breathtaking sights, narrative excitement and an overarching anti-imperialist, back-to-nature theme" 

"Avatar is an entertainment to be not just seen but absorbed on a molecular level; it's as close to a full-body experience as we'll get until they invent the holo-suits" 

"As visual spectacle, Avatar is indelible, but as a movie it all but evaporates as you watch it" 

"Cameron's singular vision has upped the ante for filmed entertainment, and given us a travelogue unlike any other. I wouldn't want to live on Pandora, mainly because of the bad air, but I'm glad to have paid it a visit"
