The film stars are Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana and Sigourney Weaver. The movie joins another epic production that Cameron is widely known for, the Titanic. The Movie Avatar is considered as a good sci-fi movie because of the quality the story line, its set design and the visual effects that give an incredible quality and an almost life like feeling to the avatars.The story line in the movie Avatar is based on a fictitious world called Pandora with its inhabitants called the Naà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬vi. The Naà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬vi have several clans among themselves, the movie is based on the clan living in the forest called the Omaticaya. The film is set in the year 2148, at this time the worldà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬s common resources are totally depleted due to over exploitation and thus humans have to go and exploit other possible energy sources fr om Pandora.The main themes in the story include, respecting Mother Nature, respect to other cultures and protecting Natural Habitat.

The role Neytiri is played by Zoe Saldana, a little girl of the family's founder Eytukan as the father and Moà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬at as the mother. The storyline will be appealing to the audiences due to the conflict between humans and the Naà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬vi.

The set design is considered as a work of art. It includes a vigorously forested moon circling the giant gas Polyphemus situated in Alpha Centauri star system. The importance of set design is not debatable in any movie and it is important that enough time is dedicated for this. According to (Street, 1937), "Amount of primary research would go into planning a set design, using paintings, photographyà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬s and other evidence of period or contemporary life, artistic license would prevail the essence of a place or period in the middle zone.à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã‚ Thus, when anyone thinks about set design, the first thing that comes to their mind is how an avatar is created. This world Pandora with its floating mountains, The AMP suits and the creatures in the movie are created to perfection and give an almost real life feeling to the audience. The whole movie is made with visual effects. The extraordinary use of lights and different colors helps to draw peopleà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬s attention. For example, the waterfalls and the sky are introduced with special use of lights and colors.

The gently curved stripes that line their blue skin, the col or of twilight, bring to mind the markings on mackerel tabby cats.
