The Last Airbender

M. Night Shyamalan gets lost in a dead script, a sickening array of cheesy special effects, and what stinks of a sell-out of epic proportions. Made for maybe six year-old boys. Maybe...

Rated PG for fantasy action violence.

It was a bad omen from the
beginning when M. Night Shyamalan had to drop “Avatar” from the title of his
adaption which was originally titled “Avatar: The Last Airbender.” Because of
the success of Cameron’s epic about Pandora and its inhabitants, Shyamalan’s
movie title was snipped to just read “The Last Airbender.”
