Avatar (2009)

Amazing movie with a lot of modernly interpreted OLD ideas

[9/10 · 10 January 2010]

This film is amazing.It's expressive,passionate,shocking,touching, and...unbelievable visual experience.Everybody should see it. Although the ideas in it are not very original, they are seen,interpreted and perfectly combined from the genius eyes/imagination of Cameron.This is the film of his life(for me). We should take a good thinking about the things happening on screen and understand what is happening in real life,how close we are to this.And how close we are to destroying nature and EVENTUALLY getting punished for that... Let hope that technology will bring us more harmoniоus and nature-friendly living instead of high-tech weapons of destruction.

P.S. I don't know if somebody had seen the animation FernGully,it's totally the same movie/idea/expression with a little difference in screenplay and plot screen. I suggest everybody who liked Avatar to have a look on Ferngully :)

Direct Contact (2009)

a very commonplaced action movie inspired of oldschool actions.

This film is amazingly stupid. It just can't be matched with Tarantino's films as the other guy commented! The film's logic is just missing.The story is for a classical old school action movie,but the realisation is so bad.Everything is chaothic and pointless. Only the action scenes are MADE good,but actually they aren't good,because they're terribly unrealistic and foolish.It reminds me only of 20/30 years old action film on which you can laugh all the time....try watching "Operation : Delta force 2" for example :D . So the movie can be fun if you understand there is nothing serious in it.I just can't understand how can people make such films in 2009...
