The Last Airbender (PG) 6.5

The Last Airbender (2010): The story follows the adventures of Aang, a young successor to a long line of Avatars, who must put his childhood ways aside and stop the Fire Nation from enslaving the Water, Earth and Air nations. (4.5)

Director: M. Night Shyamalan
Stars: Noah Ringer, Nicola Peltz and Jackson Rathbone

Watching this movie the second time around, knowing that the movie lacks quite a bit of detail from the animation series, left me with the sense of "um, did they just gloss over a whole lot of things there?" kind of feeling. See my previous comments, too. So, the concept of Avatar is borrowed from the Tibetan Buddhism's Dalai Lama? My score is still higher than the average IMDB score. My Rating: 6.5
