Just to let everyone know that this movie review is made for you guys. However, i will clarify that I should've stayed away from this movie. Now then, on with the review.

I am gonna be frank, I really wasn't into Avatar: The Last Airbender. I saw like a couple of episodes, and it was just pretty decent, I guess, but it is overrated as hell. When i heard that the movie based on the cartoon was gonna be released, they're just calling it The Last Airbender so people will never get confused with the famous James Cameron film, Avatar, and I can see why. So I saw it by renting it on DVD way after the movie's initial release, since not only critics hated it, but the fans of the show despised it. I'm even told that the people who aren't into the series or even don't like the series despised the movie too.

I will say, after watching this movie, I really wished that i avoided it. This movie was just an abominating piece of garbage, and since I've seen it, I could see why the fans of the show hated this movie.

Let's talk about the plot of The Last Airbender. We start out with the Avatar, become the next Avatar of the group. Bad news is the fire nation killed the other Avatars and the other airbenders, and- what? WHAT? Anyway, let me start over.

The Last Airbender is a film about how the Avatar is sent to free the other avatars and the fire nation took over, so the Avatar is the chosen one to fight all the spirits and-no. No. Let me try again.

The Last Airbender is-you know what, who the fuck am I kidding? This film is pointless to explain. There is no plot. There's just fighting, fighting, and that's pretty much it.

My other gripe with the film is how it's explained. Only the narrator explains what happens in montage, and I really don't know what's going on there. It doesn't feel like an actual movie this way. But hey, the plot is just incoherent that I may feel uncomfortable just talking about it. I wanna know how in the hell this movie existed and got pissed away for a film made for little kids?

Let's meet the writer and director, M. Night Shyamalan. The writer and the director of the movie. Okay, M. Night, let me say, how did the studio think you were chosen to direct this? You only make movies that have so much twists and shit like that. Sure your career went down starting with The Village, and after that, you made two really stupid, but fun to watch films, Lady in the Water and The Happening. They were the best worst movies of your career. But this, this, this is just garbage! Nothing was good about this movie.

The film is too fast, since it clocks in 103 minutes and M. Night only formed the 20 episodes in that time. How the crap would you form a 20 episode structure in 103 minutes?

Overall, The Last Airbender is the biggest misfire in M. Night's career, and one of the biggest blunders in studio history, and in Hollywood history. To the fans, I won't know if there will be another Avatar: The Last Airbender film, after the failure it did for critics and at the box office. However, I will say that even with the failure, studios will later on learn their lesson and have the creators of the animated series make an animated movie out of. But for now, we're stuck with a film that sucks. HARD.
