Using the Five W's to tell you what a film is all about.
Avatar
WHO: Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Michelle Rodriguez, Giovanni Ribisi
WHAT: An epic Sci-Fi metaphor for human greed, cultural displacement and one society’s quest for power at the expense of another.
WHEN: 2154
WHERE: The planet Pandora
WHY SEE IT: The visuals. James Cameron patiently held back production of this film until the technology that his audacious script required was available. The story is a timeless one but not a groundbreaking one. It is merely a conduit for a visual feast that will most certainly change the face cinema.
FINAL GRADE: Story: B; Visuals: A; Average: B+
