Just saw Avatar in 3D the other day and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I'm a pretty big fan of James Cameron's previous work (Aliens anyone?), but I went in with somewhat low expectations because of all the over-hyping, etc. and the previews kind of made it look cheesy and childish. However, I have to say it was one of the best films overall I've seen in a while. Sure the love story had some cliche moments, but I will say that the film as a whole was beautiful especially seeing it in 3D gave the amazing immersion effect. I'm sure I would have enjoyed it normally, but this was definitely exponentially better 3D than I've ever seen before (e.g. anyone who's seen the movie, the opening scene felt like real life). I think most people can come away with something they enjoyed from this movie and I would definitely recommend it if you haven't seen it yet.
