I have been to two movies this week. The first was Avatar. It's a good and interesting story. I think it would have been amazing in 3D. It is thought-provoking in its depiction of humans' (specifically Westerners) consumerist society. The movie shows a group of humans who want a rock or mineral of some sort and will stop at nothing to get it. There is no concern for the environment or the beings that live within it. It certainly made me think of just how true it is. We take without understanding, and more often than not, not wanting to understand the consequences of our actions.
The second was Precious. Wow this movie is shocking. This movie is not one for those looking for a light-hearted rom-com or the like. This is hard-hitting and is sure to make you detest the part of humanity depicted. It is an in-depth look at the abusers and the abused. It was sickening at times but also beautiful in parts.
