Avatar is directed by James Cameron. James Cameron's work has always been bold, innovative and imaginative, unique in the film industry, and his films have been loved by fans around the world. He has a distinct personality and a courageous spirit of exploration, never pandering to the box office, but desperately wanting to make the most ideal movie in his mind. James Cameron is a genius, and he cannot be copied (Zurjung Grace review).
Set in 2154, Avatar begins on Earth, where Jack Sally, a paralyzed former Marine, feels that nothing is worth fighting, so he embraces being sent to work for a mining company on the planet Pandora.
Terrifying monsters
There is a mineral element unobtanium on this planet that is not found anywhere else, and the reason why it can attract humans to come here to pioneer is that unobtanium will completely change the human energy industry.
A few years later, when Jack Sally arrived on the planet Pandora, he found that the beauty here could not be described in words: towering trees up to 900 feet high, mountains dotted with floating skies, and dense rainforests full of strange plants, like a fantasy garden in a dream.
A fantasy plant world
But beauty and danger often coexist in harmony, and soon he encounters danger here. In the process of fighting a group of coyotes for life, Jack is outnumbered and endangered, and in a critical moment, the princess of the na'vi tribe shoots the poisonous wolf with an arrow, and Jack is saved.
The na'vi have always lived in harmony with the other species of the planet Pandora and lived a simple and natural life, and Jack gradually changed his mind about humans coming here to mine in the process of getting along with this na'vi girl. But humanity, driven by profit, sent warplanes to destroy the homeland tree where the Na'vi people lived. Thus, the na'vi rebel alliance and the mining company's army began a bloody battle. As a result, the na'vi resistance eventually defeated the humans,

The Na'vi also used their receptors to connect with the Sacred Tree, and with the power of the Sacred Tree, they transferred Jack Sally's spirit to his Avatar, and Jack eventually became the leader of the Na'vi on the star. That's the end of the story.
As director Cameron puts it, the film's material sources are the entire history of European civilizations migrating to the New World, whether it's Australia, New Zealand, South America or North America. This is a microcosm of the colonial period.
Basically, in human history, when a civilization conquered the New World in a barbaric form, it was at the expense of all indigenous peoples. This is a long and bloody history that should evoke the memory of all and cause everyone to reflect.
Avatar is also an eco-friendly film that connects the indigenous people of the planet, especially in the rainforests, who are, in a way, the gatekeepers and guardians of nature, and the guardians of our wisdom. They know the right way for humans to balance with the natural world.
Fly freely
However, the unforgiving reality is unabashedly presented to mankind, and all these problems, such as biodiversity, deforestation, indigenous rights, cultural loss, language loss, marine pollution, and rising ocean temperatures, are in the process of human civilization development and progress at an unprecedented speed.
In a sense, the film also re-examines humanity itself, how to protect the existing civilization structure and system in the rapid development of modern high-tech civilization, even if it is temporarily outdated or even ignorant. and overexploitation of the natural environment without restraint.
