If you set your expectations a certain way, it's a very entertaining movie. I'm glad that I knew ahead of time that it was gonna be so preachy, I was still able to enjoy it. If I hadn't heard about how preachy it was, and I had gone in opening night with different expectations, I probably would have been much more frustrated than I actually was.

Simple plot - but not distracting - awesome visuals, great sound editing, and one of the most entertaining "movie experiences" I've been to. A little preachy, sure, but not over-the-top. Essentially, this is a story of good versus evil. Suspend disbelief, realize that James Cameron is a hippie, and don't go in expecting Shakespearean drama. Good movie.

I totally get where you're coming from though. The first time I ever got this feeling myself was when I read "Battlefield Earth" (borrowed from library, so at least it didn't cost me any money).
