(Alcazar) 'Aguatar', water or 'eygua/agua' is the heathy obsession of Cameton and ony justificaios of the secuel. The imagery of water flying dragons and sort of intelligent whales sustains the more than 3h...

Possibly the longest movie i've ever watch in theater yet one of the most fascinating movie theater experience i've ever had in my life, Avatar: The Way Of Water is fun, emotional, and powerful, it hits all the notes perfectly, i never enjoy an adventure films specifically outside planet earth this much in a long time, the movie never stops amazed me not only in the details of all the visual and special effects, but the story of Avatar: The Way Of Water was just incredible, all of these characters are so well written, so well perform, and again i cannot say how much i'm still amazed by all the visual and special effects in this film and it basically 95% of this film was all freakin' CGI, it definitely some of the best ones i've seen, it's so detail and so good that not even one frame including the human where i found some CGI flawed, where i can see the green screen or the blue screen in the background just a little bit NONE of that!, everything is perfect, praise for all the effect team and they deserve all the awards for it, this is how you use a CGI in movie rightly people, back to the movie itself, James Cameron recently reveal that he had planned to make Avatar 6 and 7 and one of the sentence that he said was basically the only person that can make Avatar is him, and you god damn right, i don't think anybody can ever make an Avatar movie than the creator himself James Cameron, because The Way Of Water is simply go down as one of the best movie sequel ever made for me, yes, i like it even more than the first one, not only we got more characters on the film and specifically great characters, upgrade visual, i think a better far more superior story and again even though the villain of the movie still the same, somehow it works, we also got the world of water instead of forest world, now i'm not saying that Pandora isn't beautiful, but the world of water excited and amazed me even more, it's an 3 hours and 12 minutes of epic, with the first two hours being one of the most well paced also entertaining, emotional, and powerful build up, ended with an epic climax in the last hour that basically feels like a combination between both James Cameron Terminator and Titanic, lot's of emotion, solid, exciting, and epic battle, entertaining, and mind blowing, i love Avatar: The Way Of Water, it's simply top 10 movie of the year for me, never been so hooked up and locked in a 3 hours movie like this in a long time, it's like i was converted to the movie, it's spectacular, it's amazing, i don't mind if James Cameron will only do Avatar now, do not let anybody take over, Avatar: The Way Of Water is a superb sequel that fills with incredible performance by all the cast, amazingly detail visual and special effects, gorgeous looking film with gorgeous wild world, fantastic score and use of sound, fascinating story, a powerful journey with a lot of emotion and hearts to it, Avatar: The Way Of Water is perfect!, bring on the next one James Cameron!

Avatar: The Way of Water review

Painfully mediocre and bland, everything that is told in this movie has been thousand of times in oher movies, with the same characters, with the same narrative flow, with the same resolutions.

Every character in this movie are completely flat and is painful when the movie hints that they may have depth to then not deliver.

The second act is both slow and fast as nothing as relevant as the first and the third happen, but everything that is told goes so fast that lacks any depth, making the movie awkardly too long and too short both at the same time.

On a little sidenote, the CGI looks a bit aged.

Being the screenplay so simple, there are not many ways to cruelly mess it up, hence it cannot get a lower score.

It's just that it has nothing new to tell, nothing new to speak about, nothing groundreaking or revolutionary.

4/10

A very good movie

In 2009, I saw ‘Avatar’ with my step-kids in the movie theater when it was released. Back then, they were only 12 and 15 years old. Yesterday, we went to see this sequel together (with their little sister as well) and it was just awesome to share again this experience with them. On top of that, this time, we saw it in IMAX 3D (something I always wished we did with the first instalment) and the damned thing was just visually so impressive. Seriously, some people might complain that it’s too long but I thought the time passed by really fast. What I enjoyed the most was probably the fact that James Cameron several times actually completely ignored the plot to focus instead on this fascinating world. It was also a great move to focus on a completely different Na'vi tribe living on the shores of some islands. Finally, the last thing that really worked was the fact that they didn’t focus only on Jake Sully but on his whole family instead. As a result, there was not really a main character but several characters in the spotlight and I was positively surprised by how complex they were portrayed. Indeed, as displayed in this movie, Jake Sully was still a charismatic leader but also an authoritarian jerk and Neytiri was still a fearless warrior but also apparently a rather psychotic mama bear. Still, in spite of what some reviewers might argue, I don't think this movie was such an improvement on its predecessor. Indeed, back then, the first installment was so mind-blowing above all because it was so much ahead of the game and, in my opinion, it had at least a 10 years lead on the rest of the competition. However, this movie, even if it was more than a decent sequel, didn’t feel like such a game-changer after all. Anyway, to conclude, even if it didn’t completely blow me away like ‘Avatar’ did so many years ago, I still really loved the damned thing and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
