Characters ARE kind of flat, but I couldn't care less.

This move is cliche. This movie has little character devlopment. This movie is fun.

I stilled enjoyed it. The action was well done, there was enough variance from the standard tropes (in my opinion) to still entertain me. The visuals were exactly like you heard: gorgeous. James Cameron was incredibly imaginative. I actualy liked the reason humans are on the planet: they are looking for something mundane. The audience is supposed to accept. Some people don't like a whole explanation. TV tropers have to think like other people too. (i Actually would have liked some info, but it was a long enough movie.) The evil guy (honestly don`t rember his name) is badass.

Now on to my complaints. Yes, I agree with everyone: it was full of cliches, there wasn`t any character devlopment, and Jake (or Jack maybe)`s accent slipped and he started sounding Australian after a bit.

Also, some unique complaints: I`m pretty sure the whole idea of connecting with the trees, is ripped out of Speak for the Dead. They have the same tree worships in that book (the aliens, piggies), but because it is a book the author can actually can explain how the pig alien things can communicate with the trees, and their àncestors`. Plus, Jake teach the Na`Vi anything. He could have told them something even really basic. We shouldn`t assume the Na`Vi have tried everything.

Overall good movie, but with issues preventing it from being ``great``.
