Avatar was an amazing movie from a technical perspective, but man, it's crap otherwise. I wonder how terrible it is without the wow factor of 3D.
On a side note, that Avatar Flight Of Passage ride at Disney is f-ing phenomenal…

Never saw Avatar so I figured I’d give it a go. I typically like Cameron’s work but the cgi aspect usually kills things for me. I have low expectations

Equalizer 2: 7/10
I liked it well enough but it wasn’t any different from the first. Very predictable too. I knew who the antagonist of the film was before they even revealed him [emoji23] other than that, the action sequences were excellent
Watched it just now, agree with everything you said and with your rating as well. This kind of a movie is an exceedingly rare beast and I’m thankful to Fuqua & Washington for sticking to the formula.

Watched 'Beautiful Boy' last night, what a powerful movie. Had all my emotions going.

The Meg: 5/10
It’s a freakin shark movie so I had low expectations. Watched it with my boy who liked it.

Brimstone
What's the opposite of a "feel-good flick"? This was one. I expected the story to have more depth to it but it was very straightforward. A bit different from the norm and I can see where the reputation for "outraged audiences" comes from. Interesting, watchable. Probably a strong 6/10.

Tomb Raider: 0/10
That was an hour 45 minutes of my life wasted. Worst reboot ever. I liked Alicia Vikander in Ex Machina but holy shit this was dreadful.

^^Ex Machina was very cool.

I liked her in The Man From UNCLE, which was also pointless and terrible. She should probably stop doing reboots.

I had this checked out from the library before but never watched it. Looks like an easy pass

Avatar: 9/10
Really liked it. Well written characters and the story was fantastic. Can’t believe I waited this long to watch it

I can’t believe that’s what you thought of it.

Why? It’s not a terrible film

I think because the most common complaints against the film were the derivative characters and story. From a technical perspective, it's an amazing film. It will be very interesting to see how Cameron raises the bar with the next three, after years in pre-pro.
I'll take AVATAR over 98% of these superhero films, though (BLACK PANTHER & SPIDERVERSE, excluded).
-
It looks good, but the characters and plot were staggeringly tired.
I heard somewhere that the same Colonel is going to be the main bad guy in all the sequels. That’s potentially disaterous in my opinion, as he was so bad in the first. He looked more like Major Chip Hazard in Small Soldiers than Major Chip Hazard did in Small Soldiers. Just a one-dimensional military lump we’ve seen a thousand times.

You've just described 90% of the films out there
