 Avatar       directed by James Cameron
 
The movie Avatar belongs to a war genre but it could also be considered a romantic tragedy.

 The most important people in this movie are:

Jake, a former marine played by: Sam Worthington.

Grace, a scientist played by: Joel David Moore.

Neytiri, the chiefs daughter of Pandora,who is played by: Zoe Saldana.

 This story is about Jake a former marine in 2154 who fills in for his twin brothers place since he died two weeks before his turn to become a Na’vi. Jake gets split by the group he was in, when they were collecting biological samples in Pandora. He was about to be killed by a native Na’vi, Neytiri, when a sacred seed made Neytiri lower her weapon. Neytiri brings Jake back to her father, the chief of Pandora who spares his life and takes him into the tribe on the condition that he learns their way of life and nearly as a punishment Neytiri has to teach him.

Jake is meant to be helping the military find out where all the sacred resources called ‘Unobtanium’, that is worth billions, but as Jake learns more about the way of the Pandora life, he can’t help but feel like he should protect the people of Pandora instead of destroying their way of life. In the end, there is an epic battle against the humans and the Native Na’vi’s. Jakes prays to ‘Eway’ Pandora’s God, that the Na’vi’s get help for the war.

 If I was to give this movie a moral it would be: Do the right thing and you shall be rewarded.

 Girls and boys would like this movie as you have romance for the girls and for the boys you have the war.

 I did like this move because it wasn’t all soppy since there is war in it.

 I would rate this movie 9/10 because I feel in some parts of the story the writers could have elaborated a little on certain aspects of the plot. But still it is a very good movie and well worth watching.

Well written Sophie, do you think we get to know the characters well? What makes us empathise with the native Na’vi’s? Do you think war movies are just for boys & romantic movies are just for girls or do boys & girls enjoy both genres? Exellent review! Mrs. Daly

This was a well written reveiw but it should have ended differently with the big helicopter landing on top of the Cornell

Yes I saw this movie but I dont think it’s that good. I would rate it five out of ten because its supposed to be 3D and it doesn’t look or feel like it’s 3D.

I saw the movie but thought it was rubbish because I was confused about the part where he fall’s asleep, then wake’s up in an Avatarian body. It had only one good part – the figthing
