The Last Airbender Movie Review

Short Version: The Last Airbender is torture. M. Night takes the excellent animated series – removes the humor and life from it and only adds a few cool CGI effects. Acting? What acting? Dialogue? I’ve read Fan Fiction written by 9-yr old’s stronger than this. WORST movie of 2010, and arguably the WORST movie in the last Decade and I’m easy on movies, unlike games.
Angry Joe Reviews the WORST Film of 2010 and possibly of the Last Decade. How can M.Night have failed so spectacularly and in nearly every way? Find out in this Extra Angry Review!
What you’ll Like:
• The CGI Bender attacks were cool for a little while. That’s it.
What you’ll Hate:
• Everything Else.
• Seriously.
• This thing is a Joke. And not the good kinda joke that you can watch for shits & giggles, like Batman & Robin or Battlefield Earth. This has no merit.
Final Verdict:
1/10
DESTROY ALL COPIES ON SITE!

i will admit..this movie left SO much to be desired. I thought that it could’ve gone a bit longer (but not 100 percent long to equel the season) or at the very least have a montage of Aang and his friends travelling up to the North Pole….but no. and also the fact that M Night was forced to cut out the part about the Kyoshi warriors, which he professed was his favorite part of the TV Series..it just…it baffles me why he bothered to put “Book 1″ in the movie title screen. like he expected this to work out?
ugghh….at the very least, we have the upcoming Legend of Korra sequel series to help wash the aftertaste on this. So MUCh to be desired….Far far too bittersweet.

I am glad about this. I mean, my mom liked this movie and she has never once viewed the cartoon. Now, if someone else who has never even seen episode one can tell that this movie sucked harder than the whores on Colfax ave, then he definitely deserves some props.

I see how you hate the movie. I’m sorry because I did watch the movie after you said not to but you cannot judge the TV show on the basis of the movie. You have to watch the TV show. I suggest the 5th episode in season 2 where Aang must atone for something he did in the past! This is the perfect show for this scenario! Watch it on Netflix! It’s there!

Matter of fact, Netflix has every episode, so just watch the whole series. I promise you, Joe, (and i know that the majority of the internet itself will back me up on this) you will not regret watching this series.

That director made only one good movie his whole career, and TLA was obvious not it. ONE GOOD MOVIE. IT SUCKED. Believe me, watch the cartoon. If you liked the little mini episodes with the chibi charectors, you’ll love the series through and through. The movie was so discusting, horrid, wretched, I’m ashamed to even think it was intended to please the fan base. WHICH IT DID NOT. The only ones who actualy like it are those who never even seenone episode of ATLA. Please, for the love of God and the universe, WATCH THE SERIES.

I love this cartoon. Everything about it was fantastic. It was funny there was romance the fighting sequences were incredible. They had two martial arts consultants who acted out every move and each element had it’s own kind of martial arts. The short you saw was a chibi short. They did three of them. But seriosly watch the show, it’s so much better I can’t even describe it.

So Joe? Did you ever watch the cartoon? I think many people would like a follow up to this review. The first season is kinda slow, but the second are third series are pretty damn cool. Come on Joe! Your fans want to know!

I agree with this, i’d like to hear from you after you’ve seen at least the first episode (and remember, the first episode was originally presented as an hour long premire, so effectively you’ll have to watch the first two).

the anime is a comedy not an action show

This film was, awful i went to watch it expecting some badass fighting scenes, with awesome CGI and special effects, what we got was a fucking pile of dog shit. . The biggest thing was it was boring, it dragged it should be a feautre length movie on t.v not full priced tickets at the thearters. I walked out half way thourgh i never do that, it was just that bad!!!!!!!!!! This film takes a turd in your mouth and will make you want to carve out your eyeballs and sallow them! Don’t ever watch this, never let a freind persuade you, because he proably wants you to go thourgh the same shit he did, I need thearpy after watching only an hour of this movie, the awful acting has stuck in my head since that terrible day, here is my rating. 1/10, its lucky it even gets that. We should hunt down the director of this movie and deal with him for everyone who watched this! ‘The last bender’ more like.

If only I had watched this before hand. If you thought it was bad now Joe, oh god, if only you were a fan of the show like I was. It made it, hands down, the worst thing I had ever done. Any media. Dragonball Evolution looks like a good steak sandwich compared to this!!!!!!!

The basic plot of the cartoon is more of a soul searching kind of thing. It’s more aboutAang and less about CRAPPY EFFECTS!

Avatar (the Airbender Cartoon) is made to ride on this Worldwide Anime wave to fool the kids (“Avatar is the best anime I ever seen”) to shit money. It is so obvius just by looking at the commercials.
Making a real movie was a part of the big plan right from the beginning. This avatar is like a sneaky attack to steal the kids their pocket money. If the kids beginn to realise what Avatar REALLY is (no anime/an endless story/7 movies maybe or more) they are probably 20+ years old.

15:22 um, yeah. M. Night Shyamalan wrote the script.

Dude, the cartoon is great! the Aang is funny and cool and he learns new spells and tries to control his powers… There isn’t a huge ennemy but some people want to stop him and I find it really cool

Alright Joe, I’ll take you’re challenge:
Ok the little bald kid, Aang, in the cartoon was funny as hell and actually acted like a kid. While in this shit movie, Aang acted like he had a stick up his ass the whole time. They changed the older brother of the chick from someone in the cartoon who made everybody laugh at how unlucky he was. The guy who was obsessed with the avatar, Zuko, in the cartoon he didn’t have the little baby scar on his face but a giant ass scar from the fireball his douchebag of a father threw at him, that probably blinded on of his eyes. His uncle, Iroh, was so funny in the anime. He was literrally obsessed with tea, he would probably suck a dude’s dick for a cup.
Anyway for the actual content, firebenders could actually bend without fire right next to them. Instead they can light fire from there fists and shit. Hell Iroh could breath out fire like a fucking dragon. Airbenders didn’t have to swing there stick around like a cheerleader, that’s 8 months pregnants, spins a baton.
Also this movie skipped so much shiot. They missed out on this battle with this dude who would swing on trees as though he was like Tarzan and kicking peoples asses. Also there was a part where there was Aang in the spirit world riding on a fucking dragon. The movie forgot to add in the fact that when this comet came in(instead of letting firebenders bend fire without fire) they got so strong that probably one of those mother fuckers could kill Rambo!
This movie made me want to hurl into the tub of shitty 3D glasses the the theatre gave us and decapitate M. Night Shamabala.
