Despite the brilliant use of special effects and beautiful cinematography and use of the 3D camera, which is all James Cameron is good at, what does Avatar have that makes it so amazing? The story was nothing special, the characters weren't that developed, the acting was average, and writing was not beautiful. Avatar is raved, and way overrated. The special effects are the only reason this movie is any way attractive to people. It was visually captivating, I'll have to admit that, but it just wasn't that good of a movie. I knew this wouldn't win best picture in the academy awards because all it has is visuals. All 3 of it's oscars were cinematography, special effect, and some editing award only because that's the only thing that Avatar really delivers. Everything else is fluff, and doesn't dazzle. Way overrated, and is not as good as people say.
