Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)

Jake Sully's living that Na'vi life and now has four kids. But when the soldiers come for him they have to flee and find a place with a tribe that lives on (and in) the water.

The effects are mostly fine, but there's still some of that unnatural "bendy doll" movement. The story, however, is just a collection of tropes that never surprised, so it was difficult to be even a little bit invested. The fact that the script is nothing special means that the runtime is unforgivable.
