Description
[1] Like thousands everywhere, in the early weeks of the film's opening, I joined the lineups at the theatre to see Avatar, Canadian James Cameron's blockbuster 3-D movie that quickly drew both kudos and criticism from various quarters. While it is reminiscent of movies of a certain genre where the great white saviour/hero joins the ranks of the oppressed and saves the world, it was a visual treat replete with special effects, beautiful animation that presented a world we could only hope to enter, and an appealing storyline that presented nature, not as a resource to be exploited--although the antagonists were surely attempting to do so--but as a holistic, living, interconnected creation. [2] It was an entertaining cinematic experience that contained enough parallels to earth's own challenges with the environment and indigenous peoples, that I saw the film as having both relevance and social merit.
