James Cameron's latest epic (and his first feature since Titanic) is set in the future on a distant moon. With a plotline paying homage to Pocohantas and Dances With Wolves, our hero is an ex-marine, paralysed from the waist down. He is sent to Pandora in the hope of being cured. Once there, he learns his true mission: to scout out the moon for exploitable resources. Since humans cannot breathe the atmosphere, he controls a genetically-created hybrid of half-human, half-Pandoran, called an avatar. This avatar meets a local princess and falls in love with her, giving our hero split loyalties to his own kind, and his new love. This becomes a problem as conflict between the humans and Pandorans escalates. This film is releasing on both 2D and 3D, this is the 2D version.
