Avatar: Fire and Ash, the third movie in the Avatar series, has not released yet, so there are no critic responses available. Its world premiere happened on December 1, 2025, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, but the full theatrical release in the United States is set for December 19, 2025.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar:_Fire_and_Ashhttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt1757678/
This means critics have not had a chance to screen the complete film for most people. James Cameron’s team focused on perfecting the writing, pre-production, and visual effects, which led to nine delays over the years. The movie was first planned for 2015, then pushed to later dates like 2020 and 2021, before landing on December 19, 2025.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar:_Fire_and_Ash
Right now, on December 13, 2025, the film is still in the final stretch before theaters open wide. Trailers have built excitement, showing new Na’vi tribes like the fierce Ash People and sky-borne Wind Traders, plus intense battles on Pandora with volcanic lands and fresh creatures.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wehpk-K1kAMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnIIEX5BBJwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJhghO2z8_4
Jake Sully and Neytiri return to protect their family from these threats, including a ruthless leader named Varang. The story picks up after the events of Avatar: The Way of Water, with higher stakes, emotional family struggles, and groundbreaking effects that Cameron calls an evolution of his tech.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnIIEX5BBJwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJhghO2z8_4https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1757678/
Theaters like AMC are already listing showtimes and tickets for December 19, confirming the date with stars such as Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, and Sigourney Weaver.https://www.amctheatres.com/movies/avatar-fire-and-ash-53700 Once it hits screens, reviews from critics will start pouring in, likely focusing on the three-hour runtime, $400 million budget effects, and darker tone with villainous Na’vi.https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1757678/
For now, the lack of reviews is simple: the movie is not out to the public yet. Fans can watch trailers to get a taste while waiting a few more days.
