Avatar--The movie

I was dying to watch the movie Avatar, so when I had my chance on Sunday night during a parent-teacher symposium, where all parents were told to let us watch the movie, I couldn't help but feel excited.
The movie had already started when I entered the theatre, so I guess I was late. Nevertheless, that did not lower my spirits, and I just sat down and enjoyed the movie.
Basically, the movie was about humans destroying Earth with all their activities that released toxic carbon monoxide. A group of scientists and soldiers from the U.S. army went in search of another planet, and found Avatar, which had living conditions close to that of Earth, but the obstacle was that the aliens were at least ten feet tall, and extremely agile. Jake, a crippled U.S. marine, was chosen as a substitute for his brother to be diguised as Avatar people and learn their ways, when his brother died. Soon, Jake had developed a strong sense of passion for Avatar, and even fell in love with a Avatar girl. Despite his efforts to get the humans to negotiate terms with the Avatar people, the humans persisted in invading Avatar. He had to be frank, and when the Avatar people knew the truth, they stopped trusting him. Despite the Avatar people's distrust, he did not give up, and right after he had earned their trust once again, the humans began their invasion. He fought brilliantly, and finally, with the help of forest animals, the Avatar people won.
My heart was still thumping wildly as I left the cinema. The last few scenes had left me reeling in fear. Not only had this movie incoporated the humane feelings of passion, loyalty and love, it had also somewhat raised awareness of global warming, through an exhilirating science-fi movie. Jake, who had been supportive of the invasion at first, he had realised that the humans were being unreasonable. Earth had been single-handedly destroyed by them. If they persisted and also destroyed Avatar, which had left a deep impression on him, they would be irresponsible. Moreover, as I had stated earlier, he had also developed a strong passion for the planet, and its fragile natural environment.
Well, in a few words, this movie was exhilirating and very fast-paced, with one thing happening after the other. This movie is recommended, and the 3D effects add to your excitement, keeping adreline rushing through your body non-stop. The showing in cinemas has entered its final stage, so catch it before it shows no more!
