This movie pissed me off, big time. Here was a chance for Shyamalan to redeem himself for his previous misfires by adapting an awesome animated show with great characters, a rich mythology, cool action scenes, and an enthusiastic fanbase. Slam-dunk, right? But no. Shyamalan screwed up every aspect of this project to create a cinematic turd of epic proportions. Horrible writing, directing, acting, and action. Forget this movie exists and just watch the show.

The trajectory of Shyamalan's career is bewildering. Tragic, even. Those responsible for greenlighting this script and approving the cast should be punished severely. You'll find more professional delivery of better written dialogue in most school plays. Night is clearly in way over his head. Which is too bad because the element bending effects don't look half bad. Any potential is obliterated, though, by a nonsensical (but often hilariously overexplained) story and utter directorial ineptitude.

Manages to transform a TV show with great characters, mythology, and action scenes into a film with cardboard-cutout ciphers, a bland mythology, and (most bafflingly, given their big Hollywood budget) turgid action scenes that feel smaller in scope than the ones on the actual small screen did. Some of the art design is strong and the bending occasionally looks cool, but M. Night Shyamalan's skill at directing dialogue scenes makes Michael Bay look like Paul Thomas Anderson.

It represents a sad betrayal of the terrific TV series. Shyamalan obviously tried to stay loyal to main points of the story, but craming all the "dramatic" points from 15+ hours of a tv show into a 1 1/2 hour movie? Bad idea. We lose all the essence of what made the characters great. Aang was decent but Katara and Sokka are completely "white-washed," yes, a purposeful double entendre. By trying to fit so much stuff into the film, we end up having no character development or valuable content.

Okay, but it has some bad acting and the story would be confusing as hell if I didn't already kinda know it. Condensing 20 episodes of a TV show into a film pretty much chucks out any character development and fills the movie with lengthy exposition scenes. This just makes me want to go back and finish watching the series instead of wanting to see a sequel. Also, all the good guys are white and all the bad guys are brown. Good job, Hollywood.

The Last Airbender is the last word on absurdity, and a perfect way to counter insomnia. I haven't had more turn offs from any movie other than this. Not even Revenge of the Fallen. (Yup, Revenge of the Fallen tops this one) Makes me wonder something about Shyamalan. Are his last three films just a stroke of bad luck? Or the first three were a fluke?

This movie is...bad. Yes, it turns out the critically lambasted, unbelievably expensive special effects demo is indeed as stupid and boring as everyone has already said it is. There's more than a helping of typically uninspired, ugly green-screen Industrial Light & Magic CGI, with which the child actors who lead the picture struggle to integrate themselves, and the script is awful and inorganic. Oh, Shyamalan of the immortal Unbreakable days, where hast thou hidden, and will you ever return?

Trying to shove an entire season's worth of plot into a film less than two hours? Yeah, like that would work. The action scenes are so poorly staged, it's like M. Night watched Children of Men and failed to realize that choreography is essential to long takes. Bad acting certainly doesn't help. I haven't seen the series but this didn't turn me off to it, since it's obvious even to me how much has been chopped out, and it's not an accurate representation of the original.

Not nearly as bad as people were saying it was. This movie did have a very Nickelodeon feel to it (since that was the studio that released it) but it also had a lot of really beautiful scenes. I don't know much about Avatar so I don't know if this was even comparable to the anime series, which might be a good thing I guess and probably why I didn't tear this movie apart. About the worst thing about this movie would be some of the acting, a lot of child actors and it is hard for them to do well

I'll try and fit in my hate in 500 characters but there's no way I can get it all in. So forgive me if I miss something and the shouting. That said, THIS IS THE MOST INCOMPETENT FILM I'VE EVER SEEN. The story is hopelessly mangled and garbled. You can drive a truck through the plot holes - I even stopped the film at once to complain about the "trapping Magneto in a scrapyard" level of dumb, only to have Aang point this out TO THE VILLAGERS THEMSELVES. And I'm not even a fan of the cartoon. Gods

Complete disaster, everything was done wrong and they rushed through the movie to tell as much as possible from Season 1... in an hour and thirty film. The Acting is horrible, everyone says the characters names wrong, the cinematography improved a bit from M. Night's previous films. The battle scenes are done bad and exposition was all over the place and terrible! The worst part is the let down ending and how climatic it was and then don't do anything. A terrible disgraceful film to cinema!

Shyamalan just can't adapt his sensibilities to the blockbuster format and the result is an awkward mess. Visually stunning, with complicated action pieces and nice small details to enjoy, but ruined by the poor casting choices (nothing to do with the race controversy), the condensed narrative and inexcusable dialogue. Shyamalan's fundamental mistake here is that for the first time in his career he treats his child characters as real children. It's a failure for sure, but an interesting one.

From the moment I saw the credits, I could tell this should never have been made. It physically hurt at some moments to see them destroy a series that was incredibly enjoyable and occasionally beautiful. It's a terrible sign when you still have exposition an hour into a 100 minute movie, and when human actors are less vivacious and realistic than animated characters. I hope Shyamalan has a great career ahead of him as a cinematographer, because he should never be allowed to direct a film again.

A complete insult to the source material, but kind of fascinating in how inept it is. There is easily more exposition dialog than in any movie I've ever seen, its probably about 80% of all dialog. As a fan of the show I could follow the story, but I think I would have been pretty confused if I didn't know the show. Its almost worth seeing just to see how awful it is, but if you're a fan of the cartoon you'll probably hate it more than non fans.

The acting is unanimously bad and Shyamalan's script consistently falls flat, creating a choppy and uneven viewing experience. The story simply never comes together for new viewers. At the same time, this is a children-fantasy-epic and so I can be a little more forgiving of bad acting and a choppy script, especially when 'Airbender' is often a visual wonder to behold, full of impressive landscapes and giant special effects. Leave it to Shyamalan to ruin a promising potential franchise.

Incomprehensibly bad. Incompetent on every possible level. The special effects are bad and the movie looks ugly. The direction is clunky and sucks the energy out of every scene. Ignoring the ethnicity problem, the performances are laughable, though to be fair, I don't think anyone could deliver what might be some of the worst most awkwardly expository dialogue ever written. It only get the single point so I can make it clear that it's still somehow better than Lady in the Water.

Other movies besides "Airbender" sometimes have characters stand and look away from each other while reading their lines. Other movies also usually have some amount of drama underneath those scenes as well. Once sapped of drama, we get "look, ma, I'm directing!" excelsior.

I did not find it as bad as my PSI says it is. Having watched the original, this film was done well. Going from 10+ hours of material to a little under 2 and keeping the heart of the story without any 'huh' moments is no easy feat. I didn't have much problem with the cast, sure the brother and sister weren't the best actors, but it didn't affect my enjoyment of the film. Think there's so much hate for the film because it's Shyamalan and because of a white Aang.

You're supposed to feel 1 of 3 emotions after a Shyamalan movie: relief that it was only bad when you thought it'd be unbearable, contentment that it was as bad as you feared, or horror at how much worse it was than his other movies. From this, however, I felt something else altogether: disappointment. I thought with such a creative and intelligent source, how could he possibly ruin it? But by sucking out all the emotion, fun, depth and magnitude of Avatar, by god, he found a way.

It ruins everything that's great about the series. The characters are made one-dimensional. None of the actors are any good. 90% of the dialogue is (often unnecessary) exposition, opting to tell the audience the information they need to know, instead of showing it. It could've been good, if it had been in the hands of a more skilled writer & director. The direction was truly awful, as were the visual effects sometimes. The cinematography was nice enough & there were some good fight sequences.

The Last Airbender isn't a worthwhile watch. The dialogue is almost all exposition, the characters are lifeless, and the story doesn't give us much reason to care, even if the dialogue makes it seem like such a reason is there. I was bored too often, the action scenes are CGI-filled wastes, and I wanted someone to just win so that the film would end. The victor didn't matter anymore.

Rushes too quickly through the plot points of the source material, and lacks any of the charm and wit that made the show great. Where was the humor? Also, almost every character is miscast. While Dev Patel is good as Zuko, I couldn't help but think he'd have been a perfect Sokka. It definitely looks good though, and the action scenes are well directed.

The Last Airbender proves why you don't put the cart before the horse. This movie was made on the promise of having a sequel, obviously that didn't happen, so we are left with an unfinished story that led up to something but didn't deliver. There was a lot to dislike about this movie; the acting, the script, the pacing, etc. I did enjoy the action. The fight scenes were well choreographed and much of the special effects were cool. I guess I'll just have to watch the animated series again.

Knowing nothing of the source material, it didn’t take long to get lost narratively, but while the general incoherency of the storytelling makes this a frustrating experience, it’s difficult to deny that visually it is an appealing journey, looking markedly different from any of Shyamalan’s other efforts. Performers are bland and drab, and the film’s technical strengths are not enough to outweigh the general listlessness, but it’s not the unmitigated disaster that precedes its reputation.

I don't know shit about the source material. I watched maybe 10 minutes of an episode once, so going in I wanted some action and bending elements. The action can be a bit hit and miss, when it's good it's great though. The acting is pretty poor, the CGI is great, the script is average. Some of the editing is awful, like, there are times where it's just not cohesive at all. Seeing the show would have probably made me hate this, but as it stands now, I don't.

Usually when I watch movies considered among the worst films ever made, I can still point out a few things amidst all the awful that I still enjoyed; Cats had Skimbleshanks. The Star Wars Holiday Special had that Boba Fett cartoon. Plan 9 from Outer Space had camp appeal. But I cannot think of a single positive thing to say about The Last Airbender. So astoundingly atrocious in every regard, I hope film schools in the future study this as an example of everything never to do.

El avatar que vale la pena llevado al cine. La adaptación de la primera temporada(Libro agua)es bastante acertado, una de las pocas que realmente respeta la historia original. La dirección,fotografía y sonido contienen el espíritu de la serie, nada mas destacable. Pero a pesar de todo peca de algo muy grave:CARACTERIZACIÓN PÉSIMA, los personajes están mal construidos,ej: Aang no es ese contraste entre la alegría e inocencia de la niñez mezclado con la enorme carga de ser el equilibrio del mundo.

Great special effects/3D and occasionally good art design. That's about it on the positive side. In comparison to the TV series it isn't the same. The TV series had more humor and was more enjoyable. Mostly because they could go for 9hrs. If this was to follow the example it should go for 3hrs like LOTR.

Like Aang himself, when it comes to acting, special effects sequences, and story pacing, Last Airbender ranges from occasionally amazing to often awkward. In the end, the handful of good moments cannot save the on-screen rendition of this powerful series. You walk out thinking it's a darned shame. The series deserved way better.

This film may be good to watch just to laugh at it, but if you are fan of the TV show it will most likely just upset you.

Ok, this is bad. But not the worst movie ever to deserve all this hate. The reviews kinda make me want to defend this movie.

Shyamalan shows us that he can create a mysterious atmosphere, but that he fails, time after time, to keep his audience fascinated and the pace going. His style is somewhat messy, which makes it sometimes annoying to watch. If you want something decent to watch, watch the tv series.

Shyamalan's continues his losing streak with this absolute stinker. Awfully acted and horribly written, one wonders how this film got made. So dull I can't believe I made it through the whole thing.

I never watched, cared, or even thought about the series, so when it comes to continuity I haven't a clue. Taking it on it's own, it's not a bad movie. The effects are good, the plot is childish, but bearable. The most disappointing aspect is that this movie is so abbreviated from what I assume is Shyamalan attempting to fit plot points in from a show fifteen times as long, but ends up making it unnatural and contrived. Perhaps, if the obviously intended sequel is made it'll go somewhere.

This is really, really bad, but I think the "worst movie ever stuff" stems from the film's complete trashing of the great source material. That said, to fuck up this badly is an impressive achievement in and of itself.

The biggest twist in this Shyamalan flick is that people actually put money into it. Completely uninspired, boring, and with acting that can make a rock seem more interesting. Without any personality this film is the exact opposite of the show it's based on. Stick with the show.

As a fan of the series this abortion was based on, I declare M. Night Shyamalan a war criminal and sentence him to death by air karate and bad CGI.

Not good but not the pit of despair described elsewhere. A reasonable fantasy plot although deeply under-developed. Influenced heavily by Buddhism and relying heavily on CGI and special effects this doesn't have enough substance to carry it. Some reasonable characatured pantomime villains but not even that can salvage it..Don't hold your breath for a sequel.

Almost so bad it's good but not quite. It is an insult to the source material. Some of the bad parts about this include it was poorly cast, the characters personalities are stripped, there is literally no character development, the dialogue is terrible, the movie tries to cover an entire seasons worth of content through exposition, the bending scenes are lacking. The only positive about this movie is it's only about 95 minutes of pain & disappointment. Rather than the 2.5 hours it could've been
