AVATAR (3 DISC COLLECTOR'S EDITION; BLU-RAY)

Description:

This almost three-hour epic is considered by many as the most beautiful movie ever produced thanks to its groundbreaking 3-D and graphics technology. Set in the far future, Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), travels to Pandora, a lush, jungle-covered extraterrestrial moon and home to a sentient humanoid race, the Na'vi. The 10-foot tall, blue-skinned Na'vi fight when a human corporation attempts to remove the indigenous people from their native lands. Human scientists create genetically-bred human-Na'vi hybrids known as Avatars to infiltrate the locals and discover their secrets. Jake participates in this program and encounters many dangers and beauties on Pandora as he scouts around.

KIDS FIRST!® Adult Juror Comments:

The movie has a fabulous soundtrack and somewhat of a new age feel that invites you into a new world. Somehow, the world of Pandora seems real and draws you in. You want to be part of that world. All in all, one of the best movies we have ever seen.
