Can Hollywood be any more racist? Why do they have an all white cast for asian character's? I guess they feel they can only sell the movie that way.Before you label me a racist just think about it...If they made Twilight with an all asian/black or hispanic cast, it would sit very uneasy with the majority of it's fans.Piss on Hollywood
Although I found it difficult to sit through some of the obvious dialogue in the first half I would still say this is this the adventure movie of the summer to take your kids to.
This movie was terrible most of my family fell a sleep during it. Don't waste your money!
How can they take a series with such depth and colour and...make this. Plus what's with the names?? Did they not listen to the original series, or did they just decides to pronounce everyone different? As for the comment about the original characters having blue eyes. So? Its a cartoon. It isn't in a "future Earth" its a different world altogether. The characters looked more appropriate in the cartoon being of different races. Look at the Inuit, they are not white. That is what the Water Tribe looks like in the cartoon. Avoid this movie, watch the cartoon.
I never saw an episode of the cartoon, didn't even know it was a cartoon...I'm almost 40 and all grown up. It was a good time waster, I enjoyed it, and have no regrets. Don't listen to the die hard comicons that need every aspect to be true to the comic...like I said, it was enjoyable.
About the movie I give it a 5.5 out of 10. It was not the best but the film was not that bad. If the film was longer i think it could have been better introducing that world. By showing extended scenes as the characters talked about it. Example Aang caught in the storm, The agni kai, and the intro to the movie. OK everyone calm down. Remember there has not been a film to date that not been 100% faithful to the source material. Some examples are Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Narnia, Harry potter, Dragon Ball, X men, Spiderman, Twilight and now The last Airbender. I look at all of these and see film fan fiction. True some are done better then others and some are just received by the audi
It's this summer's SPEED RACER!
The coolest movie of all! I never saw the twist coming!
the fight seens were way off from the organal cartoon, in one seen it takes something aroung 6 guys to slowly move one rock roughly the size of your head. in this movie the fire benders were not able to creat there own fire unlike the cartoon and need some sort of source to do any bending, the air bending wasn't to bad, allthough it made them look like there were moveing randomly, the only decent bened was water. in the story line they skiped out on alot of the episode from the cartoon, so you would have to watch it to under stand the story of the movie, if u didn't then its just down right confusing. but i guess for jamming something like 20 30 min episodes into one 2 hour movie they did a
Parents, children, teenagers, beware.... I saw this movie on a passing whimsy because we happened to walk by a theatre and I know people regard the TV series quite highly. Don't know what M. Night was thinking - don't waste your time and money, this movie is horrible!
