Avatar: Collector's Edition: Blu Ray Review
Avatar - Collector's Edition
Rating: M
Released by Roadshow Home Entertainment
One year after it hit the cinemas and shook the box office of all
its cash, and on the heels of its own DVD release, comes this
collector's extended edition of Avatar.
James Cameron's film's already been critiqued by many as the
amazing effects/ shoddy plot so what's the point of this
release?
Well, with an extended opening plus extra footage within the film,
it serves to extend and enrich the visit to Pandora - with three
versions of the film making up one disc and the other two devoted
to extras (including docos and deleted scenes), there's certainly
much to enjoy on the set (even if you're not blown away by the
story of the film).
Avatar's collector's edition is essential viewing as it really does
go a long way to build the experience of what went into the
cinematic phenomenon - and with two other films on the way, it's
clearly only just the beginning. Sure, it's not the most perfect
film ever, but for spectacle (and in clear HD) it really is
impressive.
