I agree 100% with what they said. Would not recommend for anyone to see in theaters, especially not in 3d. Would have rather seen it in 2d… the whole time I was taking the glasses off because the 3d was so bad.
The plot sucked, the characters weren’t developed, the acting was bad. Sam Worthington wasn’t bad-ass enough for me either. He was basically playing Jake Sully again except he didn’t have an avatar to transform into.
It was just all around pretty bad IMO… and this is coming from someone who is usually satisfied with an average action movie.
I’ll just say this: whoever directed the Craken scene clearly played A LOT of Final Fantasy 7. That thing coming out of the water…
You know when you’re at the end of FF7 and you face that dilemma, “I need to do a lot of damage here, so I should summon Bahamut, but I don’t have 9 fucking minutes to wait while the summon FMV plays” and you just sort of hate your life?

Basically that.

Humorous posts like this make me wish you’d update your blog more.
Suprised more people didn’t like this. I saw it last night. I actually left the theater thinking that for once Hollywood did a remake from my youth that I actually liked. I am usually disapointed in all the remakes I see. Kind of like the posters above. I usually feel like something is missing. I really enjoyed this movie.
