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.

The Mad Hatter
This movie was directed by Tim Burton, who is renowned for his quirky take on characters. One of the characters ‘The Red Queen’ is played by Helena Bonham Carter who also played Belatrix L’Estrange in Harry Potter. Anne Hathaway gave an exellent portrayal of the ‘The White Queen’. And of course the exellent adaptable Johnny Depp played the ‘Mad Hatter’.
“Alice in Wonderland” is a movie about a girl called Alice, who followed a rabbit down a rabbit hole. She has to save Wonderland from the ‘Red Queen’. She had lots of adventures with the Mad Hatter who got kidnapped by the ‘Red Queen’. Alice went to the palace to rescue her friend and then she had to get to the White Queen. Her mission was to defeat the ‘Jaberwockey’ and return Wonderland to the White Queen. Of course there are many adventures along the way and we are never really sure will Alice succeed.
I thought this movie was very imaginative and funny because Tim Burton is a great director and the movie was full of mad funny characters with brilliant costume design!!
I would recommend this movie to anyone from 8 years and up, because small children might find some scenes scary, but I think adults, children and teenagers would really enjoy this movie. I would give it a 9/10. I docked it a point because sometimes I got a little bit confused when I was following the story line. But overall this was a very enjoyable movie.
To find out more about the movie go see it!!
