Freaking great.

Revolutionary, as far as visual effects are concerned.

Great reviews, tremendous response, etc. Another success for James Cameron.

I saw avatar last night. The plot was fairly predictable, but not so much that it ruined the movie. I liked it a lot.

The story was VERY predictable, but it still was pretty good. The grafics of some of these new movies are amazing.

Haven't seen 2012, but have heard some discouraging comments from those who have. Can't go wrong with Avatar, IMO.

To whomever it was that said something about the movie being almost 3 hours - wow, I didn't realize it was that long. I remember having to pee about an hour into things, but apparently was able to hold off for another 2 hours. Another sign of how much I enjoyed this film, I guess!

2012 was ok, but Avatar was great. I'd definitely pick Avatar. (It is more expensive, but it's much much better IMHO)

I saw it last night in IMAX 3D and it was a great experience. I recommend seeing it in 3D. It took me a few minutes to get used it, but it definitely added to the experience.

I saw it in 3D last night, and visually it was unbelievable. The storyline was predictable, but it wasnt that big of a deal.

Great movie. Visuals were the best to date. Cameron's writing is not the best but he is a top shelf director.

It is not often that a human vs alien movie makes you root against humans.

Just saw it last night in 3-D at Easton in columbus.

I was absolutely blown away by the effects and the movie itself both. I never wanted it to end. And i usually can't stand Sci-Fi movies but i gave this one a chance.

Cracks my top 5 ever. I was that impressed.
