If you watched Avatar in 2009, you may not enjoy this at same intensity. The Way of water with 190+ mins of screen duration doesn't have enough emotion to make you feel connected. First half is in a way same as Avatar 2009 with nothing new . . . at times you may feel as if you are watching water version it.
Kids who are watching it first time on screen may enjoy but others who watched Avatar 2009 the visual wonder don't expect this movie or storyline to connect emotionally.
Yes at times there are scenes that are breathtaking but 190mins of screen time doesn't justify
However you may like it if you haven't watched Avatar 2009 on big screen.
