The trailers for Avatar have me looking forward to the special effects and dreading the storyline. Early reviews tell me I have good reason for both feelings:
Russell Moore says its “Rambo in Reverse.” Takeaway line: “If you can get a theater full of people in Kentucky to stand and applaud the defeat of their country in war, then you’ve got some amazing special effects.”
Ross Douthat says it’s yet another chapter in Hollywood pantheism. This is really an excellent article worth your while, even if you don’t plan on watching Avatar.
This blogger says it’s about “white guilt” and white people need to quit making film after film after film about it.
