Please rate movie 1 to 5 stars
loved the setting and characters but didn't realize it was just part one
was expecting alot more. director shymalan has lost his touch. his other movies were much better.
adding the 3D as an afterthought was a mistake.
kids enjoyed it
Not so good acting but the story kept me seated instead of walking out. I will not see this again.
AVERAGE STUFF
I thought the director did a very good job at making the anime come to life. It went by fast, but considering the number of episodes covered by this movie it's understandable. Worth a watch even if you are nt sure f the story.
It had so much potential. This director should just stop making movies.
my seven year old sister could've done better than m. night shyamalan
another failure from m.night shymalan.. it was his daughter who wanted him to make the show into a movie and she must be hardcore disappointed in her daddy i knew it would be bad but this was just horrible! way to screw over everything, m.night shymalan...do us all good and just retire already
This movie the Last Airbender does not even come close to mastering the original series story line. The movie lacks a significant amount of detail and intricacies that are part of the original series. There are for all intents and purposes two main characters for this movie Suko (the prince of the fire nation) and the aang the avatar. Each needs to develop properly this movie does not do that. Firstly aang emerges from the ice as a child and grows to become the avatar. Suko intent on capturing aang and restoring his honour realizes through his own character development that the fire nation has committed injustice and needs to amend not only the fire nation but the injustice that he has
Terrible movie. Great special effects in the fighting scenes, but that was it for this movie. Simply just a movie for kids.
This was by far the worst acting I have seen in a long time. I left.
Predictable...would never watch it again! definately a movie for younger audience, i felt like i was watching a chinese version of the never ending story...and it seems that this one will continue just the same...
A different kind of movie
I was a fan of the show and had a feeling it wouldn't be that good amongst most people, but i loved it, the only thing is that it was WAY to rushed and fast paced. the movie should of bin longer and showed more of the characters time together. The movie didn't really let us connect with the characters, they didn't let them grow, develop or show who they really were. They didn't really allow the characters to bond and connect with each other either. the acting and script may have not bin that good but what ever it did the job. I respect M. Night Shyamalan and his work, and i even if he didn't do the best job, i still get what he was trying to do, and hopefully the possible sequels will be bet
can't wait to see the 2nd movie!!!
Lets keep in mind this movie's approach and presentation based on one of the film companies behind it ... Nickelodeon. This movie is definitely aimed at a younger crowd, making it a definite family movie. The special effects are great especially in 3D. Acting could have been better. The story line is one of overcoming one's weakness and fears at a level that a young audience will understand. I would have liked if the story line of this first movie to had been a little darker since this story is likely to be a trilogy on the big screen and that then the later screenings become lighter as the final goal is reached.
cartoons are ten times better, this movie failed hard in my eyes. for shame m. night for shame
The movie was pretty bad...I thought it was kinda may be the end of Mr. M Night S!!
it was imasing
Not a great movie, but some fun to be had here. Just check your intellect at the door.
This movie is a disgrace against film making altogether. Horrible acting, crappy effects and a story that was ripped out of the source material leaving behind anything related to Character or character development. For all those interested in seeing this movie DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE you will hate yourself for wasting 2 hrs of your life. Watch Twilight Eclipse instead at least in that movie you can make fun of Bella and Edward's "Love" For each other and the fact that Jacob spoons Bella while Edward Watches. HA!
Great movie, was pretty much word for word on the cartoon series, awesome job!!
Di spite all the negative star ratings on this movie, I decided to take a chance and take my 6 year old son. We both thought it was FABULOUS!!! Kept both of us entertained, A must see in our opinion. 5 Stars
I never watched the TV show so I had no idea what I was in for. Was not that bad but I wish they had gone a little darker but it is a kids movie! I am sure my niece & nephew will like it.
Should listen to the critics on this one. Watch the DVDs instead.
M. Night Shyamalan ruins yet another movie. Acting was bad as they were given too many lines to work with. Hopefully they continue to make the next movies, but with a different director.
this was a terrible movie not worth to see in the theater wait for a rental
As a movie by itself it was somewhat decent, but it did not do the TV show justice at all! And they really should have pronounced the names right. The movie was way too serious.
it was good...not as great as the clips but good
It was a good movie but acting needed work.even with not that good acting you have to remember most if the actors were under 18so over I would spend money to see how it turned out.
Poor acting, with slow moments which literally put me to sleep in the theatre...Zzzzz

two thumbs way down
Terrible.
IT SUCKED!! i think a 10 year old wrote the script and the acting was TERRIBLE!!! D: shame on you people!
Very disappointing movie. The effects were great though, especially the air bending. Would recommend waiting for the DVD to come out.
Was extremely disappointed. They took everything that was great about the cartoon and left it out of this movie! Also if you haven't seen the series than you probably won't even be able to follow what else is going on. If they DO make the next installments of the series than I hope that the Director actually watches the cartoon to see how it should be Done,and Whats with the name was "Ang" too Difficult to say? LOL
I think he's lost his touch,liked his previous movies better.
movie was ok, but i didn't like being set up for the sequel already
the special effects were great, but the dialoge was really lame. To much bad acting, and borring.
Very entertaining. Did not like the ending.
Kids will probably enjoy it but unlike other action/fantasy movies that originally are targeted towards children but can be appreciated by adults as well, this movie is too predictable and is an example of exaggerated acting.
Great Special effects,Lots of action, good original storyline, looking forward to the next instalment!
I thought it was a great movie! It was full of action, special effects, and a very interesting story line, definitely leaves you hanging!
Too much over acting and they can't even bother to learn to pronounce the main character's name properly. Althouth the fire-nation characters were well played.
Visual effects were well done. it does however suck that they will obviously split the movies up into 3 parts to follow the same storyline as the cartoon.
I was disappointed. I thought there would have been more action and special effects. The young boy was awesome though.
The good news is there won't be a sequel. It's all about dollars and cents. It won't generate the dollars and it makes kow "sense"
