Yes. I just saw it. I usually swear not to see movies like this, not just for it’s sci-fi-ish nature, but especially because everyone says “you HAVE to see it.” Something rises up in me when the collective world tells me that something is simply TOO good to pass up. OH REALLY? I say... and then swear not to give in to the masses no matter how GOOD it is. It’s the reason I still have yet to see any Star Wars movie, any ‘Pirates’ movie, or any of the Harry Potters. Sadly, I caved on the Lord of the Rings movies a couple years ago. I’ve been told it’s just a stubborn pride thing, but I don’t think that it is.
The truth is, Avatar brought out a lot of spiritual emotion in me. The whole experience felt like a glimpse of a battle in the spiritual realm. It had magic and whimsy and suspense. It was beauty in so many forms of the word. It painted a picture of how beauty started as a mere fantasy of sorts and became so deep as to bring to life and transform a soul, thus completely changing its reality. The movie had the single element that every great movie possesses. It spoke the unspeakable words that only the heart can understand. I left the theatre wanting to live a better story with my life, and for a movie to accomplish that is no small achievement.
