The sea gives and the sea takes

I had to swallow Avatar: the Way of the Water (by James Cameron) in small appropriate doses, in max 60 minutes bites. Otherwise I couldn't have made it. Not only it's long (192 minutes), but the animated characters have so little to give. Them lifeless buggers are endlessly boring. Thankfully, the movie looks nice, like a standard contemporary video game, just too bad you are left out playing it and marvel someone else's handiwork instead.
