Yes. Visually the movie is striking. Beautiful colors, believable sea creatures, what not. The Maguffin as Hitchcock called it is weak and not explained well at all. In the first movie at least humanity needed some sort of mineral. Now it's a kind of whale oil that will guarantee immortality to humans. Ridiculous. Sigourney Weaver reprises her role as an avatar but you'd hardly know it. I hate the way the kids talk to each other. Right out of today's high school. I understand Sigourney wanted it this way. Ridiculous. The basic problem, other than the Navi are just butt ugly, is that you don't care about any of the characters.. Just like to first movie, there is not a single memorable line the whole movie. And they are making a third one! Go figure.
