This film was very moving for me. There is really is something special about it, and if you allow yourself to complete let go and be immersed in the world it creates, it changes you!! You come out of the Theatre changed.

I found the same emotions many of you have expressed here after watching it--and even more. I certainly took away a sensation of being fundamentally dissatisfied with our realization of ourselves as a species. We have such a profound potential, and that potential is hanging there right in front of us waiting for us to grab it. Our connections to each other and to the world around us are the most important things to develop. All of the other mess is static...just static to distract and obfuscate your true purpose as a human being!!

The film will be with me for a long time. I feel blessed to be alive in an era where we can create experiences like these and share them with each other. This was an experience...not a film for me. Thanks James Cameron.
