Big hassle. Waiting past the weekend to avoid the crowd, but there was still a crowd. Lined up an hour ahead of time for a good seat.

Well worth it. Spectacular visuals. The story is fine. Hard as it is to believe, there was no lull in 2 hours, 40 minutes. The IMAX screen seems like it would be too big to take in, but after it starts it seems just the right size. The geography, flora and fauna of Pandora are beautiful in ways that really do seem to set a new standard.

The single minded military villain was a little too single minded, almost a parody of the genre. But that's a nit in what was a memorable one-of-a-kind movie experience.
