Avatar: The Way of Water Saturday, 12.17.2022, 02:24 AM
It's been 13 years since ex-Marine Jake
Sully became a Pandorian Avatar, after disposing of some very destructive
Marines. He hooked up with native Neytiri,
and the union produced three half-breed, 5-fingered children. And now, the Marines want to not only take
over the planet, but also take their long-awaited revenge on Sully. Realizing that remaining with the Forest Clans
would endanger the lives of everyone there, the family Sully hightails it to
the land of the Sea Clans, many days ride away to another part of Pandora. In tow with them is adopted human son Spider,
whose parentage is a cypher, and adopted daughter Kiri, whose mom was the late scientist
Grace Augustine, who also became an Avatar like Jake. And the chase begins. Now, that is the basic groundwork of the
film. However the simple story itself is completely enriched, but never
overwhelmed, by the truly stunning artistry of the graphics, special effects
and excitement of this new Avatar.
Outcasts befriended by outcasts. Coming in at 3 hours, 12 minutes, Avatar: The
Way of Water is a definitely epic in length.
Fortunately for all involved, it’s also epic in enjoyment. And just like the way of water, let the
beauty of the film flow over you and envelope you. Lisa Blanck is the Associate Editor and Movie Reviewer for In Focus Magazine.com.
