Avatar 3D Review

by jonboy on Dec.23, 2009, under Australia, movies, review

Last night a party of three, a friend, my 8 year old son and myself, went to see Avatar, the alleged masterpiece by James C.

We arrived in perfect time only having to suffer 8 minutes of previews before being directed to don our 3D glasses much to the relief my son desperate to wear the very dorky glasses we had been given.

A quick comment about the 3D, it is very understated and not “in your face” 3D which I found refreshing.

The movie started well turning into quite the visual feast after the first 15 minutes, after which I became engrossed in what some reviewers commented as “as a slow starter” and I will admit that this movie is on the cook for a fair crack before we start to see it begin to boil, but when it does it is great.

Speaking of time, I usually can equate how much I liked a movie by how long it takes me before I check the time to see how much more of the movie I have to see/endure. Happily I can say that by time this happened over two hours of the movie had played out and we were in the exciting home stretch.

I’ll finish this short review by quoting the eight year old as the credits began to roll, “That was the best movie I have ever seen in my life”…..I’ll give him an out for later on in life by stating that it was also his first 3D movie experience.

Overall: Distinction 78/100

More Perth goodness – 1349 bottles of beer on the wall

Not actual container robbed

Brazen crime or just tomfoolery, you be the judge. Though it is a damn shame to have procured so much beer (~$35,000.00) and then get nicked for it and lose your stash as well.

Its getting that a guy can’t even enjoy a beer and a quiet smoke without being arrested. :)

To be honest is Hoegaarden even a good beer ? The reviews are not that great.
