AvatarTheWayOfWater is a stunning sequel, a remarkable fresh start for this series, one of the best action films of the year, and a reminder that James Cameron is a director unlike any other. Our review:
Avatar has always had an uphill battle in trying to prove itself. Coming twelve years after James Cameron’s Titanic, which became the highest-grossing film of all time, won 11 Oscars, and became a cultural milestone, Avatar had absurd expectations to meet right out the gate. Despite overtaking Titanic’s box office total , the conversation around its sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water, has been one of uncertainty.

The first Avatar also looked magnificent, yet faltered with a clumsy story with stiff dialogue and hackneyed story beats.
The Sully family is a strong addition to this sequel, not only building these relationships and our empathy for this story, but also setting up the future of where this universe can go. Weaver is particularly excellent, playing a much younger character this time, but with a spirit that is reminiscent of her work in the first film. Yet this performance never manages to feel like an adult playing a teenager, and that’s a testament to Weaver’s work here.
