Well, my Cinefollowers, last week was a banner one for yours truly. I was able to see a truly great film, that was a treat for all the senses. That was JAMES CAMERON'S AVATAR. Not since I saw the first STAR WARS, have I been so dazzled by a movie.
This film of course is CAMERON'S much-ballyhooed, directorial follow-up to his last flick, does anyone remember a modest effort called, TITANIC?
Every time, CAMERON, does a film, he reinvents the medium. AVATAR, is no exception. The film reputedly has a negative cost of $200,000,000, well it certainly seems to be all up there on the screen. I saw the film in 3-d and it simply blew my mind. CAMERON, fills the frame with imagery, that I have never, ever seen before. The battle scenes at the end are simply breath-taking and you will be blown away. Apparently, for this film, CAMERON, invented his own camera, I wouldn't be surprised.
In addition to all the visual razzle dazzle, the film does have a good story, (a trademark of a CAMERON film). SAM WORTHINGTON, must be singled out for holding his own among the synthespians, and of course, it's always nice to see SIGOURNEY WEAVER, on screen.
If you want to see a treat for both the head and the heart, get thee post haste to your nearest multiplex and check out AVATAR, you'll be glad you did.
Until we meet again...
