The opening sequence already tells you how the movie will end three hours later. In other words I agree with what most people say about the lack of a decent storyline.
That said the visuals are stunning, so kudos to the animators!
Sadly a lot of those beautiful visuals are just do-overs. When Lo'ak enters the belly of the whale it lights up like stars, and I was transported right back to The Abyss (1989). The whole sinking of the attack vessel that brought the Sky People? Hello Titanic!
And what's with the character animations? They put a lot of time into Sam Worthington's Jake Scully and really caught the nuances in his facial expressions. He's the only one who actually moved me. Zoe Saldana's Neytiri? I didn't recognize her at all. All she does is shriek.
Kiri and Tuk were beautifully done, but I didn't recognize their actors either (although who wouldn't recognize Sigourney in real life?) So a bit of a mixed bag for me, and also a bit of a disappointment.
