Big time disappointment

There is really nothing in this movie that did stand out. I did notwatched it in 3d maybe this was the cause as I missed the hype but thisway I could evaluate the movie. No characters, no fancy villains, the story is predictable and boring.When I walked out I really felt like I watched a small action movieproduced directly for TV.Can somebody tell me what is so amazing about the movie?I admit the effects are great, but it really seems the makers of themovie consumed so much energy on the 3D hype that all the other aspectswere forgotten.Thats untypical for Cameron, looking on his previous movies, like T2,we saw real character development in acting (especially LindaHamilton). Here, all characters are too flat, they have no dimension.Im 29 years old maybe if I were 12 the movie would be awesome to me.If this is whats left from Cameron, the once great director, then Iwill rather turn to younger talents like Christopher Nolan, who seemmuch more dedicated on story and acting then on action.

So - is 3D the future?

I figured that reviewing Avatar for its content would have beenpointless, as there are thousands of reviews here that have alreadysaid everything. So I thought I'd take a different tack and review the3D technology and the fact it's being touted as the next big thing;maybe even the answer to piracy. Avatar is the the one movie everyone'ssaying will kick-start the 3D revolution. People are insisting, "youHAVE to see Avatar in 3D! In IMAX!!"Well, I did just that. IMAX and 3D with the full-on subwoofer surroundsound experience. And I can report that the technology has a long wayto go before it becomes the norm. So, what are the problems with it?1) We're used to viewing the world in 3D and our eyes/brains adjustvery quickly to depths of perspective. We don't even notice it. Sittingin a cinema, we are happy seeing a flat 2D projection because that'swhat we expect. Now, we are force-fed a fake 3D image through polarisedglasses and our brains, unhappy with being momentarily tricked, startto unravel this false image. We look for the slightest anomaly to tellus that this isn't real. And when we find it, we disconnect. Then,we're fooled again - and the cycle repeats.2) Maybe some folks out there had a better set-up, but my "3D"experience was often blurry at the edges, had noticeable double orghost images and was curiously flat in some scenes. So again, we noticethe fake and disconnect from the image.3) With cinema's frame-rate of 24fps (the result of saving on expensivefilm stock back in the day), jerkiness during camera pans is still aproblem in 2D. In 3D, the effect is even more pronounced and quitenauseating. Again, we disconnect.4) After a while, the glasses became uncomfortable. My partner reporteda headache as we were driving home.5) Many people prefer the look of film over video. One reason for thisis the use of shallow depth-of-field shots to focus our attention onsomething. Often, the out-of-focus objects are in the foreground. Inreal life, if you're staring into the distance, the brain can ignoresuch objects but with fake 3D, the object in the foreground suddenlytakes on more 'importance'. The result is a huge out-of-focus objectsomewhere in front of you.I could go on but you get the idea. There are simply too manyinconsistencies with this fake 3D image to accept it. It becomes afight between the eyes and the brain and, frankly, it's a relief whenit's over.3D cinema has been around in one form or another for donkey's years.You'd think, in 2010, we'd have technology that was actually prettygood. This isn't the case. Personally, I won't be seeing any moremovies in 3D and if anyone asks, I shall encourage them to see Avatarin good old-fashioned 2D.Oh - and what did I think of Avatar the movie? 3/10.

Don't have high expectations...

...because I had.I had so much hopes from James Cameron's Avatar, particularity thetrailer promised a perfect and advanced plot, which served as a bigdisappointment. The tools, machines, aliens were planned out perfectlythough.The movie was going down from the point where it started, the onlypickup was after the interval. Not worth the ticket I would say.The storyline was predictable at most of the points, the fightingscenes were good, overall I would recommend watching this as analternate in theaters or waiting for the DVD.

One of the most satisfying movie-going experiences in years.

I'd heard a lot of hype about Avatar, about its innovative technologyand groundbreaking special effects, about all the anticipation, aboutthe strong reviews and very strong opening weekend and Golden Globenominations, and as much as I was intrigued, as much as I was wantingto see it, I was a little apprehensive. More often than not, hyped-upmovies disappoint me, or at least underwhelm me. But this time, thehype was right. And this is one hell of a movie.True to the hype, the special effects are astonishing. And the 3-D usedin the film was spectacular. Visually, it's one of the most amazingfilms I have ever had the privilege to see.Now, some people had indicated prior to my viewing of the film that thestory and dialogue were a little weak. While I won't say it was thebest-written movie of all time, and while I wouldn't hold my breath fora Best Screenplay nod at the Oscars, it was far from a bad script. Atleast, it didn't distract from the movie and leave a bad taste in themy mouth. Whatever it lacked in originality it more than made up forwith the way it sucks you into its world and takes you along for aride.And its world is well worth being sucked into. Such depth, such sheercreativity, in the world and its ecosystem, is unequalled. As alien asPandora is, by movie's end, it seems perfectly natural, and the beautyand grandeur of its scenery and life-forms is staggering.Finally, the acting was competent, and "right" enough not to distract,though, again, Oscars are unlikely. The music is another matter; Iexpect Horner will at least get a nomination for his powerful score.Basically, all the individual pieces of this film are well-crafted, andthey all seem to fit together into one tapestry that surpasses justabout everything else in the movies of the past several years. I won'tsay it was 100% flawless, but whatever flaws it did have were minor,and completely shadowed by the magic of this film. I thoroughly enjoyedit, and will eagerly await its DVD release. Highly recommended.

Seriously the story is obvious

This movie was OK, but seriously the story is obvious, it's a story wehave seen over and over again, good over bad, boy meets girl has tolearn a new way of life, has to be excepted by her family and has toredeem himself towards her family blah blah blah, reminded me a bit ofDances with Wolves.However, the special effects are amazing and fun to watch.All in all Avatar is an entertaining movie, but lets not make it out tobe more than it is.Terribly expensive in a time when too many people are out of work andstruggling to survive! Which goes against the spirituality story lineof this movie!

Day 1 to 2010

And yet again, another hint for us; another poke to our very mind! Wakeup you people! Setting aside whatever business or financial motivationsbehind what made James Cameron to produce another masterpiece, thestrong message which was meant to be conveyed, I believe, was deliveredbeautifully and succinctly. What was the message? Hang in there folks.Let me think, oh yes, the message! Humans, the earth, life, death,universe, lifestyle... What are we humans really?! Are we really thecomplete creations who deserve the kingdom of the cosmos? Or are we aplague which consumes the resources of its host to the depletion ofthem all? Or maybe we are the super creations which are still evolvinginto perfection. Being realistic and considering the fact that we areprogressing and evolving, my next question is in what way are we movingforward? What is our understanding of our universe? Where are westanding on the continuum of human age? Are we looking at around usthrough the correct lenses? Yep, we have them both – left hemisphereand right hemisphere! Fortunately or unfortunately we have them both.Processing through our analytical right hemisphere, we need resources,if we add this to that we'll get the other one! There is no doubtwithout such mental processing approach, science and our understandingof the universe will linger into the darkness. However, compared towhat intuition and beyond can bring along, our rational, analyticalfunction is like an infant that has been around since the dawn of time.No, did not mean that at all. Since the dawn of contractual spoken andwritten language! Yes, we have learned through time, we have recordedour mistakes and learned from them. Well, at least for the most parts!We often do tend to make same mistakes more than once! Back to thehemispheres. The other lens through which we can view the worlddifferently is our second processing and connecting ability which linksus to the universe itself. Our non-stop endeavor in understanding thelaws of the universe will all hopefully yield to the exploration of thelaws of the universe. The fact is that as humans, we are so desperatelydependent on our physical manifestation of our entity that we cannotsee otherwise. The Na'vi people in Avatar illustrated the greatbenefits of integrating with our surrounding of which we are a part.Fictitious? Yes, the story is but can you call the reality behind itfictitious? I don't think so. Go green, go vegetarian, go pro nature.Why all that? Because we have already experienced and are stillexperiencing our lack of respect to, integration with, anddisrespecting our mother earth and in a greater scale our universe andits very simple laws like the law of gravity, the law of attraction,the law of karma, and so forth. Of course, we cannot physicallyexperience connecting our pony tail to the flying monster in order toguide and control or in a sense communicate with it. That is our truechallenge in life. It is to try to come to understand how things workaround us. All we need is to open our eyes and respect what we have andexpress our constant gratitude for everything around us. Lucky thosewho have learned the lessons of such laws and abide by them, and haveundergone great great challenges in their lives to understand and provethem to themselves and people around them. Maybe by letting our fearsgo, maybe by asking for less, maybe by believing in who we are and whatwe can do, we, too, can learn the right ways and purposes behind ourphysical acts. Special thanks to individuals like James, who once in awhile remind us of who we are and where we are and should be headingto...My crazy thoughts... Eraj Ghafoori 28/12/2009

Enough to make old eyes feel young again

I'm not really that old, but I've seen quite a few movies in my day.After Lord of the Rings was completed, I wondered if I'd ever be trulyexcited by a motion picture again. Well, James Cameron has done it withAvatar. There are the obvious cinematic innovations to acknowledge:carefully used 3D, the new motion capture technology, etc. The filmjust simply LOOKS great. I found myself giggling with joy at the purebeauty of so many of the scenes of Pandora (the alien planet) and itsfauna. Cameron's time deep sea diving has obviously fired hisimagination for strange and wonderful creatures. There is solid acting(particularly Stephen Lang, as the Colonel, who somehow pulls off agritty depiction of a now very clichГѓВ©d role), and there wasn't a singleline in the script that had me checking my brain at the door. (Thereare some recycled lines, to be sure, but I didn't find themdistracting.) Score by Horner was subtle, yet still moving. Frankly,though, what worked more than anything for me was the overallstorytelling. A number of my friends were disappointed with the "gonenative" tale, that has been "done to death" through previous works like"Dances With Wolves" or "Last Samurai", but I didn't find it old atall. Rather, this is a fantastic re-imagining of the age old humantendency to colonize and obliterate other cultures and environments.Cameron is definitely spinning us a morality yarn, but it is one thatcannot be spun enough times, and he does make every effort to make thisiteration the most beautiful you will ever see. 10/10 p.s. Without anyintentional hyperbole, I consider this to be the finest movie I've everseen.

Don't Buy Blu-Ray Just Because of Avatar DVD Scam

As many reviewers have noted, this three-disc collector's edition (for regular DVD players) forces you to change discs IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MOVIE. Instead of laying out the entire film on one disc, this ridiculous box set puts the first half of the movie on one disc and the second on another, for all three versions!!You have two ways to avoid this - either buy the plain-jane original release (no extras, no frills) or the Blu-ray version. Several Blu-ray salesmen seem to be actively monitoring and commenting on a number of Amazon boards urging disappointed Avatar fans to pour all their money into Blu-ray.So instead of paying just $25 for the collector's edition, millions of Avatar fans are now being steered to pay an additional $80 or so for a Blu-ray player, something they wouldn't have bought otherwise. These so-called "helpful commentators" even throw in marketing crap like, "you know you want it" and try to convince skeptics that they're "missing out on the latest HD" by not buying Blu-ray.Give me a break. What they won't tell you is that Blu-ray is a failed format that many people, especially in this recession, see it for the gimmick that it is. Honestly, how many times have you watched a movie on a regular DVD player and sighed, "Gee, this movie really stinks because it's not a Blu-ray?"These greedy salesmen are no different from the military in Avatar - why settle for trees when you could mow them down and build condos? Nothing is ever good enough.Why not take a lesson from the Avatar - live simply, in tune with Nature, and not contribute to Blu-ray landfills. Buy the no-frills version, be patient, and wait for the 3D version, which will shoot down the price of this current "collector's edition" scam version to a few pennies in 2011.

Disappointing

Avatar had the potential of being transcendent, but falls well short ofit. It had the opportunity of really getting inside the mind that isnot just in harmony with nature, but co-creative with it. --Of gettingan up-close-and-personal sense of a Gaia in all its magnificence. --Ofcontrasting all that with our relatively impoverished, modernconsciousness. What we got instead was the tired old good guys againstbad guys drama, dressed up with a lot of effects, special as they were.Even the indigenous culture, supposedly the nature people, partook ofthe same fight-against-the-other-guy mentality that our culture istrying to outgrow. There were no redeeming solutions offered. Mostcharacters, colorful as they may have been, were just black and whitecaricatures. I really wish I could praise this one, but I just can't.Such a magnificent effort, and such a pity.

Avatar??

I cannot believe there is such a number of great reviews for this film! After watching it I had nothing but questions: have people's tastes really fallen so low? Did the director, being an experienced and talented man, really think he accomplished something great with this? Am I wrong by not enjoying it at all when everybody around me does?I haven't been so bored watching a film for a long time. Granted, the effects were spectacular (and my only star goes exclusively to them)! from the very first scene I knew almost exactly what was going to happen in the rest of the film. Since I heard the story about that big orange bird I couldn't help but waited when the protagonist was going to ride it. It was crystal clear from the start that the bad military men and greedy businessmen were going to try and ruin the planet and the good guy will save it (turning into an avatar himself and, of course, reuniting with his beloved) but not without some sacrifice on the good people's side. There was no surprise whatsoever at all! There was nothing new, nothing exciting, nothing interesting. I will never bring back those 3 hours of my life!I cannot believe film professionals really think that nowadays this is enough for a film just to have some very special effects and virtually nothing more. Turns out they are right considering all the raving reviews and crowds of people going to the cinemas. What a depressing thought!......

Great experience

I have seen the movie in 3D last night and I am really really exited.This movie was fun to watch and I enjoyed nearly every minute (161min). The storyline is not as bad as some people say. The visualeffects are ground breaking and you will flow with the 3D effects, thecolors, the atmosphere. When I left the theater, I was unable to put myopinion in words, it was just awesome. The last time I was blown awayby a movie like this was 1999 with "The matrix". Just convince yourselfand ignore the complaining critics. Watch it in 3D, otherwise you willmiss a lot. In the times of huge flat screen TV's, cinema is back withan experience you can not copy at home. THIS is the right answer toillegal copies. The storyline is simple, but it works great. Just donot expect a deep philosophical statement and enjoy the experience.Definitely 10 out of 10. The best movie 2009 and a lot ofentertainment.

The movie that made me smile this year

Although I didn't thought my smile could be any bigger as it was todaysince it was snowing here the first time this year, Avatar made ithappen.But what other feeling could I have just after watching a movie whatgives me the wooow feeling every shot. Everything I experienced was sobeautiful, so perfect. Mother nature making her best movie appearanceever.Even though I was really excited watching the trailer, I noticed I hadto be a little bit more careful with trailers these days. It wouldn'thave been the first time this year I had seen a great trailer but beinghighly disappointed watching the full movie. Fortunately Avatar madethe expectations come true, and although I have to agree the storylinemight be a little bit clichГѓВ©... I really couldn't care less, how thishas been worked out I doubt it could have been done any better.Although I have to admit first seeing some of the characters I was alittle bit afraid some would be to stereotype and wouldn't fit in quitewell. But I was wrong, the cast has done a really great job acting,absolutely giving me the feeling every single character should belongin this movie.This and a lot more I can't explain are the reasons you should go tothe theaters whenever you have the chance. Avatar can't be described bywords only, you have to take the journey to Pandora and experience ityourself. It will not let you down.8.5 Stars

3D compared

I went to see both the IMAX and the non-IMAX 3D versions one after theother today and I say that IMAX 3D is really the best. IMAX is more 3Dthan the other. It probably is because of the screen size and theprojection power. When you are sooo into the movie you forget that youare looking at a screen (the boundaries disappear). In the meetingscene where the Colonel was telling the attendees about the build up ofNa'vis, I felt like I was there myself. (This maybe a spoiler alert)Now the movie. After this movie, the movie academy should already addnew award categories like Best CGI Character (Male) and Best CGICharacter (Female), etc.

The demand for awe starts to grind the film down after the introductory, new-car-smell period, soon left with only one-dimensional characters making predictable choices while the backgrounds flashdance to stave off dramatic inertia.

Put those intellectual leers aways y'all...

dare i say it was 100% percent of prasable visual marvel,it was asfashionable as Gucci or any new brand in the wide world d&G newestproducts. and those denying that are as dull tasted as once AndrewSaris was with Ingmar Bergman intelligentsia detachment.well spare mylow class taste because it is phenomenon and history long hail lastingever movie,despite critics of fare exclusive and their against countertendency,this is highly recommended to those egoist Todd Mccarthy typepeople,those whom esteem movie bores like An Education and theadversity Precious:Based on true what the hell... movie and they goblind to watch Avatar and yet their ice ain't broken...i kinda got itchy with the Oscar final output and i was in the mood toblow em blow job insipid bastards,in the other hand it was the firstwoman to achieve an Oscar for directing,and that was refreshing anyway.Cameron is still ravenous to be an event of cinematic culture yet heain't the king of anywhere,but this rage of human race that leads toturning an alien guy,is so crude discovery and an old one,human crawlsinto mother nature and space men keep it from sky coming strangers,butin magnificent and new age of visual and additional revolution with inambitious environment and colors like fanciful Alice in the wonderland.we will remember Avatar for lots of reasons which is not basicallyvisual effects,for it has a strong heart warming story,digitally veryreal and a separate world tale which is somehow utopia of junglesettlement.and wonderful Neytiri-Jake chain love,which is loaded stepto step.the sub-cultural nation of Pandora are the extincted Indiansand us are human rage-rs.put those intellectual leers aways y'all,how you could not enjoy thisraid?let us be pleased of thou movie and we can make it...

To Dream of Another Time.

When I was 10 years old, I remember seeing Terminator 2: Judgment Dayin the theater. And when Arnold first saves John Connor from the T1000,I recall the vivid awareness that I wasn't just watching that Summer'saction Blockbuster. It was something more. At the time, I didn't reallyknow or understand that feeling. But years later, when I'd revisit T2it would click into place.I wasn't watching a movie. I was watching a Dream.Across the years, I've been blessed to encounter a handful of otherfilms that gave me that same feeling—the feeling that I could close myeyes, and awaken to a new world of distilled imagination. Blade Runner,Pan's Labyrinth, Metropolis, and Nosferatu are a few names on thatshort list. Early in Avatar, when paraplegic Jake first links with hisNa'vi avatar and races across the Pandoran landscape, exhilarated to berunning again, I leaned forward in my seat and smiled. Once again, Iwasn't watching a movie. I was watching a Dream.Avatar uses the classical narrative structure of a man who must stepbeyond his culture, become one with a society alien to his own, andultimately make a stand with his new brothers. And unlike previoustelling of this tale, Jake can literally step outside of his human skinand take on the form of a blue-skinned and golden-eyed humanoids calledthe "Na'vi." Neytiri, a female Na'vi, guides Jake in the ways of her tribe, and asthey make this journey together a bond forms between them. "I see you,"she whispers to Jake. "I see you," he whispers back the way two loversmight exchange "I love you"s. And there couldn't be a more appropriateexpression of affection for these characters. "I see you." DirectorJames Cameron wants to open his audience's eyes, as Neytiri opensJake's eyes, to the breathtaking sights of Pandora. But unlike visualeffects masturbations like G.I. Joe and Revenge of the Fallen both ofwhich throw CGI out randomly in an effort to create themost/biggest/boomest explosion, Avatar aims to recapture the child-likewonder of experiencing a *vision* that, to quote Manohla Dargis,"really is bigger than life." Another director would be content to show the majestic floating"Hallelujah" mountains in the distant background, but not JamesCameron. He goes further and invites us to climb them with Jake and theyoung Na'vi hunters. After dangling perilously from vines and rockfaces and clawing our way to the top, Cameron then lets us ride on theback of winged dragon-like creatures, the Mountain Banshees, and soarabove and between this magical landscape of towering miracles andimpossible valleys.But more importantly: amidst the overabundant spectacle, Cameron neverloses sight of that child-like curiosity driving all fantasy. Do youremember staring at the cover art of your favorite book asking, "Whatwould it be like to fly? How exhilarating would it be holding on to aBanshee for dear life while it dove 300 feet straight down? To feel theroaring wind rush past with the intensity of a hurricane as youfly—really, truly, honestly fly?" James Cameron remembers asking thosequestions.He's filled the world—the vision—of Avatar with sights both grand andsubtle. This is a movie that will go full throttle into an epic battlewhere a legion of Banshee-mounted Na'vi fly fearlessly through theairborne mountainscape while the military gunships unleash a hellstormof missiles, and yet it also has the patience to let Neytiri reverentlypause to observe where the drifting Seeds of Eywa fall. It will showyou giant colorful dinosaur-like creatures smashing through trees inthe all but obligatory stampede sequence, but look closely when theNa'vi get ready to ride a Banshee and you'll see gill-like orificesthrough which the creatures breathe. The world of Avatar feels biggerthan life, yet I felt like I could reach out, grab a sample, and takeit with me.Is Avatar perfect? Far from it. It blatantly contradicts itself duringthe climax and brushes a little too close with propaganda in places.But like a dream, it didn't matter. When you've looked across thePandoran landscape at night and absorbed the mystical beauty of theself-illuminating flora, when you've felt the thrill of watching Jakecommand the meanest predator on the planet and unite the Na'vi tribes,when you've *seen* Avatar … you don't care about its logistical faults.It's a movie about sights, and James Cameron isn't shy about thatpoint. It's the heart of the film. It's in every frame—in the veryfabric of the film. Hell, it's even spelled out in the dialogue."I see you." In the cold mechanical adult world of unforgiving cause and effect,Avatar is the movie to reawaken the forgotten child of so long ago. Thechild who believes in searching for undiscovered frontiers to explore,who believes dragons and magic exists, and who believes dreams arereal. It's always refreshing finding out our inner child is stillalive, that the jaded real world hasn't killed him off entirely yet.Thank you, James Cameron.

Terribly disappointing

Though my eyes were pleased by much of the beauty in 'Avatar-land' Iwas appalled at the painfully simplistic story. So painful I had towalk out of the theater twice to just clear my head. Though the basicmessage was great, the path to the message was riddled with mindlessillogic which, to the detriment of those trying to do good in reallife, reinforced stereotypes. Even 'all good' stereotypes can bedamaging. And the fact that an outsider to a group had such enormousinfluence pulled from the worst of literary tradition.What a shame that such a visually pleasing film couldn't be a goodmovie.

A decent movie but not worth the hype

This movie has SO much hype around itself that it couldn't possibly betrue. And indeed the hype is unmotivated. The plot is the most linearI've seen in AGES, there's no surprise whatsoever. It is full ofclichГѓВ©s, "good vs evil", love for nature and all the elements that makeit a commercial success but an artistic disaster. The only thing thatsaves it is the visual aspect, the special effects, but those also havetheir exxageration and if you've seen it you know what I'm talkingabout. I saw less LED in a disco.Seriously: simple plot + bad soundtrack + below-the-average actors +clichГѓВ©s + decent graphic = a movie to enjoy at home, in DVD.Oh and please, even if you liked it, try to be reasonable and DO NOTVOTE 10 unless you really think it deserved it. Take a moment toconsider your vote

Breathtaking experience bringing a beautiful new world to life!

Queing outside the BFI IMAX in London, we waited in expectation forJames Cameron's new film. The Terminator, Aliens & Titanic werebecoming distant memories following the director's lengthy absence fromthe world of Hollywood. Avatar is worth the wait...At first your eyes may struggle to adjust, I know mine did, but onceaccustomed to the 3D imagery they are transported to the vibrant,enchanting and yet potentially deadly planet of Pandorra. 'You're notin Kansas anymore' is the line borrowed from another breakthrough filmin cinema. Perhaps this will one day be held in the same light.Jake Sully is the marine, bound to a wheelchair in human life, who isselected to fill the role of his late scientist brother. There he isgiven his own Avatar - a body in the form of the planet's nativeresident, the Navi, controlled by his mind. Jake now has the freedom hecould once only dream of. At first our enthusiastic hero is caughtbetween his roles of research and combat. What ensues is a relationshipwith the Navi, one female in particular, that will dramatically change,not just the course of his own life but that of the whole of Pandorra.As a member of the audience it is often possible to empathise with anon-screen character. Avatar puts you right into the heart of the filmand in doing so pushes the boundaries to the limit. Welcome to the newworld of cinema.

Why it needs to be watched.....

Well, well what do we have here? A masterpiece, i guess. Why do we knownames like James Cameron, Steven Spielberg, Sam Raimi etc.? Its becausethey have made their names by making and/or directing excellent movies.I saw the movie today and i got to tell you that if you miss it thenyou are missing something awesome here. Here are the reasons why youshould watch this movie? First, the movie concept is amazing. It haseverything in it to be termed as an amazing movie (action, sensuality,emotions etc.). Second, the movie has amazing graphics. This moviegives the actual and real definition of "GRAPHICS". Third, its beenwritten and directed by James Cameron (yes you are right the one whomade epic movies like The Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgment Day,Aliens, and Titanic). Its worth watching only in theaters and not onDVD's or CD's. At the end i would like to say that i had a blastwatching this movie. People who miss it, i honestly feel sorry forthem. Simply a must watch....
