Well today I went to see this film, expectations high, although I must admit I still haven’t watched Titanic, so disregard any director faith input.
Friends love the film. Amazing.. Fantastic etc.

I did enjoy the 3d aspect, very nice, particularly the cognac ad that preceded the feature.
And all is going well into the first half hour, Character introductions, building the premise, allowing the mind to soar with wild and unimaginable expectations..
But what the hell.
The Matrix meets Dances with wolves, chuck in a little Brave heart spirit and we are done.
There are no twists, or unexpected eventualities, the plot proceeded into the full hour disregarding any humour that engaged you initially, You like a child, a baby… ‘I paraphrase’, but for FFS, Gaia, James Lovelock eat out your neural connections and root your arse to the ground and shimmy.

The idea was delightful, too many explosions for my taste, and the moral implications apparent and obvious.
I did, squinting eyes exit the cinematic arena feeling slightly sad that I could not live among the trees and connectivity of their planet, and couldn’t help but bring a smile to my face for the inhabitants of Pandora.
