And the only entertaining part is two hours in when someone "passes gas."
But seriously, this moving is non-stop science/political jargon without ever pausing to give you a chance to process what you heard. The characters are unrelatable and undeveloped. There is no exposition, no rising action, no climax, and no resolution. It's just monotonous talk-talk *new scene* talk-talk-talk *new scene* talk-talk=talk some more.
Gone is the magic of The Prestige, the depth Inception, and the wonder of Interstellar. In its place is pretentions telling, not showing.
PS: Why does Florence Pugh not wear clothes at any point during this movie?

Some pros include 1) Absolutely gorgeous design and visuals, the planet is jaw-dropping and the technology is just sooo cool 2) Top notch action sequences 3) A great villian
Some cons include 1) Really did not have to be 3+ hours 2) Pretty much the same story as the first one 3) Too many "look how pretty Pandora is" moments 4) Not the most conclusive ending, leaves way for a sequel that will probably come out in 2035 5) Too many kids and teens (most of them starting their sentences with the word "bro"
All in all if you liked watching the first one you'll definitely want to check this one out, but it does come across as a rehash of the first except with water instead of trees.

A brief list of problems with this movie
1. It's a movie by committee, which means it exists for the sole purpose of making money. They have to check certain boxes, make sure everyone is happy, and not offend anyone.
2. It takes itself pretty seriously until they decide to throw in a joke, which is about every 90 seconds 3. Christian Bale is a great actor (from Empire of the Sun to American Psycho), so let's give him almost nothing to work with, aside from (yet another) "I want to destroy everything" bad guy 4. Everyone loves Guns n Roses, so we should play four of their songs! But not any of the deep cuts, just the hits at cliched parts of the movie (and even name a character Axl) 5. Russel Crowe: It doesn't matter that his Greek accent sounds more Italian than anything else, people like him so maybe they'll like this movie.
6. Screaming goats.
