Avatar

avatar

We saw Avatar in 3D Sunday evening. And we enjoyed it.

After hearing so much criticism about the alleged Green propaganda in the movie, I came away a little puzzled at all the controversy. It didn’t strike me as especially preachy.

As far as I’m concerned, Avatar is just a sci-fi version of Dances With Wolves. And, like Dances With Wolves, Avatar is longer than it needs to be. At 162 minutes, it’s 19 minutes shorter than Dances With Wolves. Mel Brooks once opined that no movie should be longer than 90 minutes. I tend to agree.
