5/10
Not fantastic, but not terrible.
6 July 2010
SO let's start with the bad: The movie just didn't have enough to make it great by any means. Much of the dialog was stiff, as was some of the acting. For a kid's movie, it was humorless. I saw the movie in 2D, but I heard that the 3D was awful, as it was originally intended to be a 2D. Don't try to compare it to other good movies such as perhaps Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings. And of course, it will never be able to replace 61 episodes that made up the TV series, because much of the characterization and story line is missing.

The good: The action was well-done for a PG rated movie, as were some special effects. I would at least compare it to some lite martial art movies. Without, umm... too many Asians.

It's just not as bad as what people say it is... but I would say skip it especially if you are an Airbender fan. This seems to be one of Shyamalan's crazy pet project.
