Hi
Avid has it's own very good time displacement and optical flow plugin: it's called the Timewarp!
If you apply a timewarp effect and change the interpolation method from the drop down box to "Fluid Motion" the Avid will use a very good optical flow algorithm to adjust speed in your footage. It's actually quiet a complex tool underneath and you can paint along motion vectors to help it along. I've had some good results. The strange "morphing" effect occurs when the interpretation of the motion vectors is off, usually when it's difficult to separate the moving object from the stationary one.
Like Steve has pointed out, Twixtor is also very good, and another is Kronos: http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/products/kronos/
But if you're just after the morphing effect, the Timewarp can do that for you for free.
Hope that helps.
