A good friend saw the movie and declared it a wonderful experience. This is another instance where the “propaganda” is just part of the story I think.
Personally I am going to look for a place with IMAX and catch it in 3d.

Before you spend the big bucks for an IMAX experience, make sure this film was made with IMAX cameras.
I saw Dark Knight in IMAX and was in total awe.
Saw Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince in IMAX 3D. Paid big bucks for it and ONLY 12 minutes of the film were in 3D and none of it filmed with an IMAX camera so it didn’t fill the screen.
I’m not sure how Avatar is, but I wouldn’t pay extra to see it if it’s not really in IMAX.
(According to the extra features on Dark Knight, there were only 4 cameras in existence and they smashed one during the filming of the truck chase)
I just returned from watching it in 3D. There are some liberal stereotypes in it, especially the gung-ho military commander. I came away with a distinctly anti-narcissist message. I doubt that was the intent, but there it is.
