Avatar: Fire And Ash Movie Review:
At over three hours, it is certainly the longest edition so far. And, as James Cameron watchers would expect from the writer-director, the scale of the new Na’vi adventure is visually stunning. In the fight between the water people (in tune with Nature) and the air people (expansionist humans), a new fire people enter the fray. In short, all the elements in different avatars.
The fire people are grotesque and non-believing to boot.
Nature has to win.
Families that watch out for one another and never quit a fair battle come with prescribed emotions. Joy, grief, separation, heart-stopping choices and reunion that accompanies victory, come packaged into it.
Families have to win.
James Cameron’s third outing in the Avatar series is therefore like going into an upscale Udipi restaurant expecting and getting idli, dosa and filter coffee by the yard. You get what’s on the standard menu and it’s served with the flair of a Michelin star chef.
Avatar followers will settle down comfortably as the screen bursts with the freshness of water, young cousins prancing with the waves along with ‘bro’ Pakayan, the whale-like Tulkun outcast.
The writing team – Rick Jaffa, Amanda Silver, Josh Friedman, Shane Salerno – led by James Cameron, puts the Sully family in the centre. The filmmaker brings together biological kids, adopted ones, another adapting to Na’vi environment, immaculate belief in a Goddess, even an immaculate conception. While there aren’t too many takeaway lines, one where Daddy Sully puts his foot down is worthy of repeat. “This is a family, not a democracy,” he commands.
After the comfort of watching the harmony of the reef people with a question mark looming over whether Spider (from the bad human world) should be allowed to stay on as family, Cameron’s storytelling picks up pace.
Battles are fought with hair-to-hair combat, with two women hissing at each other and the adopted boy and outcast Pakayan pitching in to win their place in the family.
It is interesting as it hurtles from fight to fight and there’s a juggle with emotions and loyalties. But there is the disquieting thought that Cameron has run out of anything new to tell. He even puts a pregnant woman delivering a baby in the thick of battle, an enforced cliché to add emotional tension that’s been seen before in films like A Quiet Place (2018).
Avatar: Fire And Ash – Watch it or not? Watch it if you want a visual experience with an expected mix of familial, environmental and societal lessons.
