There wasn't anything 'shitty' about the plot, IMO - simply unoriginal. Even so, there's still a LOT of metaphorical truth in it, and it was still far better & more cohesive than the typical bullshit Hollywood churns out. For the entertainment value, even at $15 for IMAX 3D, it's the least ripped-off I've felt in a long time.

As for it just being a 'cartoon' - that's about like dismissing 'talkies' as just a movie with noise!

Oh girl, I was worried about sitting for that long and after it was over, it didnt even feel like it was that long, I was sorry it was over, I could have stayed even longer!

I like what Kerry said. For those that are dogging it, just dont see it, but perhaps you should see it before you dog it. I hated dances with wolves, but at least I watched it before I said it sucked (to me).

As far as story line goes, its just showing the typical human behavior of greed and destroying what you dont understand to get something thats worth only money. I saw it in regular, and will be going back to see it in 3D.

I'd highly recommend it - IMAX if possible. Be sure to get there early enough to get good center seats. The immersive 3D technology is stunning!

I think you expect too much from film makers today.
Yeah, good movies are so over-rated.

The bleeding heart in me hates seeing the wolf killed, for that alone I am not a fan.

I saw it tonight in 3D! It was awesome, I loved it. It really didn't seem long.

I want to live in the forest with them and sleep on their corn husk tree hammocks!

My only complaint was that the 3D glasses didn't fit me too well and I had to constantly push them up.
