Was this written by a 10 year old? TERRIBLE
previous comment is full of it... but the movie does skip allot of important stuff and fills it with unimportant explanations... acting is bad. Don't go see it in 3d, save ur money... this is coming from a huge fan of the show, movie had good moments but was overshadowed by the bad.
Okay so they can't include everything in the film that there was in the animated series, but this still has the right 'feel' to it. I read some dumb reviewer who was winging that Aang, Katara and her brother were caucasian. A little research would have helped that reviewer click into thefact that Aang and Katara have big BLUE eyes as does Sokka in the animated series, and that doesn't say Asian or Inuit to me, it says Caucasian. Why do some people think that a FANTASY film MUST relate only to our world?? The film is good and I look forwar to seeing the next two. And no I am not a tweenie or teenager, I am almost 60! A good story is a good story, so let us all sit back and enjoy it!!
Way too short to tell the story of Book 1, should have been longer, more development, disappointed in this, I did come in expecting more. Effects were well done, just too quickly done.
loved it.....i hope they make the other two seasons into movies!
WOW!!! Loved it! People give M. Night a hard time, but this movie was great. I have never seen the TV show, but still loved the movie. Great for kids and adults. There should have been more Momo.
The cartoon sucks! However, since my dad kept convincing me to see it (he hates the TV show, as well) cause he likes the special effects, the action and Chinese settings look cool, it's not "scary action" like most of the action flicks I like, it's reviews are negative, it's made by the guy who makes thriller and horror movies (M. Night Shyamalan), it's in 3-D, and I haven't seen a good Paramount movie since THE SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES (that was like 2 years ago; I only like Paramount movies from Nickelodeon and I couldn't wait til March 2011 for Johnny Depp's RANGO), I was left with no choice but to give it a chance. Then, I LOVED IT! I guess it was all worth it, after all!
very disappointing.. movie doesn't really flow as the story line is very weak and the acting resembles a grade school play. Special FX are decent in some parts but choppy for the most of it. Very predictable and unenergized story line, even some of the little kids in the theater were bored
Nothing like the TV series, or decent enough if you've never seen the series before. Will not see any sequels.
it was an okay movie
