The most anticipated film Avatar: The Way of Water has finally hit the screens today. Let us see how this visual wonder is..
Story :
Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), who went to the planet Pandora from our planet, realizes that our people are treating them unfairly, so he turns against his own people. And we know that the first part of Avatar ends when he falls in love with and marries Pandora leader’s daughter Neytiri.
And from there the second part starts. After Neytiri’s father, Jake Sully, becomes the leader of the tribe. Neytiri and Jake Sully will have a son, a daughter named Tuck, a foster daughter named Kiri and a human boy named Spider. But Spider is the son of Miles Quaritch whose mission is to take over Pandora. Jake remains Spider in Pandora, unable to find the right source to send him back to Earth. Amidst this, a set of selfish people will come to Pandora from Earth and all they are led by Quaritch Na’vi. Then Jake prepares for guerilla warfare to save them. Quaritch’s men capture Jake’s children and Quaritch learns the truth that Spider is his son. However, Spider, who is not pleased with Quaritch’s desire to finish Jake off, fights against his own father. What happened next forms the crux
What’s Entertaining & What’s Boring:
Avatar’s beauty lies in the fact that, despite all the Computer generated imagery, it looks so real that you begin to wonder if ‘Pandora’ really exists. The same happened with this sequel also. The visual spectacle keeps you mesmerized throughout the film. Special mention to VFX. The passion for environmental awareness is stirring and the director showcased it in a fascinating way as any multiplex audience could desire. The film, throughout its length, makes us feel like we are in a spectacle of the water world. Although the story is predictable, the way it has been made with best motion capture effects makes us impressed.
It is better to watch Avatar 1 before watching this film because those who have not seen the first part may find this movie confusing at the initial stage. As mentioned earlier, the length of this movie is around 3 hours and 10 minutes. Even if you don’t get bored anywhere, some people would definitely find it as one of the minus points.
Performance of Cast & Crew
The amazing cast of Avatar 1 has returned and all of them need special mention as they rocked in their roles. Coming to the technical part, Avatar 2 has brilliant technical values that you would have ever seen before. Film gives us an amazing visual wonder. The cinematography by Maro Fiere is amazing. Maestro Joe Letteri’s special effects are an added attraction to this movie. Another highlight of this film is the music provided by James Honor. When it comes to the director, James Cameron’s vision makes us stunned with top-notch visuals. Also, the story in this movie is a bit better than the first part..
First Half & Second Half:
Both the halves make us feel we are in Pandora world. Though there is lag here and there, that can be easily ignored in this Visual wonder.
