Here are review links for this film submitted by our members:

  • Allen Almachar @ The MacGuffin
    • Excerpt: It’s truly one of the great examples of how technology and art can coalesce to create something unique.
  • Alex Bentley @ CultureMap Dallas
    • Excerpt: The film is a demonstration of both the good and bad sides of Cameron. As he’s proven for 40 years, his visuals are (almost) beyond reproach, but the lack of a story that sticks with you long after you’ve left the theater keeps the film from being truly memorable.
  • Andrea Chase @ KillerMovieReviews.com
    • Excerpt: Meanders rather than inspires, with a forward momentum that is all but imperceptible.
  • Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
    • Excerpt: visually astounding…but…a story that features repetitive captures and escapes, a climax that looks a lot like the last one and spends over three hours to advance just one new concept is exactly why this franchise is suffering fatigue.
  • Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
    • Excerpt: A staggering technical achievement that delivers scale and visual beauty few filmmakers can rival. The story? Eh, not so much.
  • Kristian Lin @ Fort Worth Weekly
    • Excerpt: Aafter giving the last two movies in this series a good kicking, I was surprised to find that I actually had something nice to say about this third installment. Stay tuned, loyal readers.
  • Wesley Lovell @ Cinema Sight
  • Harrison Martin @ Flixfrog
    • Excerpt: Avatar: Fire and Ash is bold, beautiful, and brilliant! It might be the weakest film of the trilogy, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want to see more of these movies.
  • Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
    • Excerpt: A full-on experience of sight, sound, and emotion.
  • Aaron Neuwirth @ We Live Entertainment
    • Excerpt: With reports that Avatar: Fire and Ash may just as well be one of the most expensive movies ever made, given all that’s accomplished, it’s just as well that it plays like a movie that should absolutely wear that stat with pride.
  • Matt Oakes @ Silver Screen Riot
    • Excerpt: Overlong, repetitive, and dull, ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’ commits the cardinal sin of being both excessive and unnecessary, adding little to the Pandora saga and failing to justify a return to this overstimulating world. Let’s just hope James Cameron hangs up his hat here so he can focus on better things for the remainder of his career.
  • Allison Rose @ FlickDirect
    • Excerpt: Visually impressive but narratively repetitive, Avatar: Fire and Ash recycles familiar beats without recapturing the magic of Cameron’s earlier chapters.
  • Diego Salgado @ Sofilm [Spanish]
  • [New] | Jeff Schaefer @ The Marquee Topic
  • Sebastian Zavala @ MeGustaElCine.com [Spanish]
    • Excerpt: Haters of the saga won’t be converted, but those who always have a good time on Pandora, like Yours Truly, will have a great experience with this new movie.
