The Last Airbender - Movie 2010

Title: The Last Airbender
Rating: 3/10
Director: M. Night Shyamalan

Probably the worst movie I have ever seen in the 17 years that I have lived. A movie which completely ruined the franchise and disappointed fans to a huge extent.
Siblings Katara (Nicola Peltz) and Sokka (Jackson Rathbone) discover a boy frozen in ice, Aang (Noah Ringer) who is the Avatar and the last airbender. Intent on finding the avatar is Prince Zuko (Dev Patel), Who along with his uncle Iroh (Shaun Toub) has spent the last many years in exile. Originally predicted to be a blockbuster, This movie is now ranked as one of the worst films ever made.
This movie further goes to prove that it is impossible to adapt an animated series to a motion picture and do justice to the extremely high expectations the fans have.
One of the reasons this film failed so horribly was because the special effects were the worst, A five year old kid couldn't have done it any better.
REALLY?
Directed by Shyamalan who is not all to blame for the  failure of this movie because He was plagued with problems and biasness while working on this movie. Another reason this movie failed was because the studio hired only Caucasian people to play the good guys and hired Asian or African people to play the bad, Due to this it was boycotted by the Masses. The fight sequences are just a mixture of martial arts and karate with no real bending to entertain us. This movie does not keep true with the epic and spell bounding lore and story of the animated series.
For those who have yet to watch this eyesore of a movie, I envy you. Save yourselves and don't watch this movie or you will have the uncontrollable feeling to gouge your own eyes out. Instead watch the animated series of the same name.
