Wow! Let me say it again, WOW!! I was totally blown away by this movie which I saw in IMAX 3D. It was two and one half hours of jaw dropping excitement. A magical planet with magical creatures and plant life not to mention the 10 foot tall humanoid inhabitants replete with tails (Na’vi). This was [...]

I saw two people walk out of the matinee as a result of the unrelenting gloom proffered by this story [...]
