Avatar Movie PosterIf the 1980s belonged to The Terminator and the 90s to The Titanic, it’s definitely Avatar in the 2000s. James Cameron has once again broken all boundaries and created a visual extravaganza that’ll have audiences running to the theatres!

Avatar, Cameron’s latest magnum opus is all set to release worldwide this Friday, and from the global reports , it seems that the visionary director has indeed created a film that’ll revolutionise the world of cinema.

Avatar wowed critics at its London premiere last Thursday, with some early reviewers calling it “jaw-dropping ,” “mind-blowing” and a gamechanger in Hollywood for its digital effects . The 3-D epic adventure by the director of 1997 blockbuster Titanic, is one of the most expensive films ever at a cost of about Rs 2,000 crores to make and market. If initial reviews are any indication, it may be money well spent for film studio 20th Century Fox.

“James Cameron has proven his point. He is the king of the world. Movie magic is back!” proclaimed one showbiz newspaper. A UK tabloid called it “the most dazzling film of the decade.” Another called it a “hugely rewarding experience” . Looks like this is surely one film that cannot be missed!

In India, Fox Star Studios is planning to release the film on a grand scale. Confirms Vijay Singh, CEO, Fox Star Studios India , “There is an incredible buzz around the film in India, and we are going to give it the best possible release. Avatar will be released in 700 prints, in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu, which is by far one of the biggest releases for a Hollywood film in India.”
