National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation 3/5 (R)

Avatar 3.5/5 (C)

It's an enjoyable enough blockbuster film but it's only a few hours later and I've mostly forgotten about it. 3D is nice but still doesn't seem to add anything to the film (and is it compulsory for somebody to get a pole stuck in their chest in every 3D film?) . The technology used to create the Na'vi is pretty phenomenal and it is that rather than the 3D or CGI environment and creatures that has the biggest potential to change cinema.
