Analysis
James Cameron does it again. A cinematic visionary Cameron brings a paradigm shift in filmmaking and in science-fiction cinema. 12 years after that wonderful, Titanic, he provides 'wow' experience one more time with his latest visual splendor - Avatar. The film is released in Telugu across the state today (December 18, 2009) along with the English version. AVATAR is testament to the fact that even human beings are capable of 'creating a world of their own (even though, it is virtual) as varied and as beautiful as God did. His imaginative world - Pandora, far distant from Earth in the universe is reflection of bio-diversity with rich flora and fauna, exotic creatures, colorful flies, and dreamlike lush jungle. This very world and its inhabitants called Na'vi are the backbone of the movie.
Those wonderful Computer Generated Graphics are larger than life. Films like these compel us to watch movies only on the silver screen. We bow to you, Cameron.
The film is completely belongs to the one-man army James Cameron who wrote, edited and directed. Although it is a tad lengthy with 2 hours 45 minutes, the film never lets you down thanks to the director's great grip on narration.
Bottom-line!
Go and watch Avatar to the magical experience on silver screen. After Matrix, Avatar has the capability of changing the course of filmmaking in the coming years. Visual feast from master director James Cameron.
