Caught this movie last night and was really impressed about how far rendering/mocap technology has come. I was expecting to feel sick watching a 3 hour movie in 3D, but instead after a few minutes my visual system became accommodated to the stereoscopy.
Also, while the environmental/spiritual/science/native = good guys vs. corporatism/military = bad guys was simplistic, I guess it's a welcome reversal from the film days of Cowboys & Indians and Alien. However, it does perpetuate the myth that indigenous peoples lived in perfect harmony with their environment while the truth is the Americas were groomed and the coming of humans led to mass extinctions of large animals well before the Europeans arrived. In other words, we should be doing BETTER than the Native Americans.
Anyway, I thought it was worth the $12.75 price of admission.
