More than a decade after its release, the film is still a stunning visual feast. When it was released in 2009, Avatar became a global sensation, the first film to be shot entirely in 3D. Audiences around the world lined up to enjoy the magical world of Pandora. Returning in an upgraded format, the blockbuster continues to captivate audiences with its sharp, deep images.
Through James Cameron's imagination, the film depicts a fascinating ecosystem - where the Na'vi people live in harmony with nature. The Na'vi are portrayed as tall, lively creatures with blue skin and sparkling amber eyes. In the scene where Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) first gets lost in the rainforest, the audience seems to join the character on an adventure, where there are giant trees with vast canopies, powerful creatures that can take lives in seconds. In the scene where Jake encounters the Thanator leopard, the CGI effect (graphic effects) creates a feeling of suffocation when the character confronts the most dangerous wild beast in the world of Pandora.
The 3D effect helps the romantic scenes of Jake and Neytiri (Zoe Saldana) - the princess of the Omaticaya tribe - to be more lyrical. Viewers once again relive the magical atmosphere when the seeds of the soul tree fall around Jake, proving that he is the one chosen by the gods. The scene where Jake and Neytiri hold hands and walk among the bioluminescent vegetation, flying with the Banshee mountain dragon... becomes a classic emotional scene of 21st century cinema.
