The Last Airbender is a 2010 action film that was based on a beloved tampil of the same name. The film got really bad reviews, but I actually really liked the film.
I only saw clips of the animated tampil before watching the live action film so I'm judging this film oleh itself instead of comparing it to the show. I still haven't watched any full episodes, but I did enough research to understand the plot and characters.
The film focuses on Aang who's the avatar. He's discovered oleh a duo of siblings, Katara and Sokka, who become his friends. It's up to them to save the world from the evil api Nation. Zuko, the son of the api Lord, and Zhao, the api Lord's detik in command, are up to no good.
The film has been mocked for combining the whole first season of the tampil into one film. I personally thought this risky decision paid off well. The film was filled with exciting storylines and action scenes. Aang, Katara, Sokka, and the antagonists each get a subplot and all of them are interesting.
There's a lot of compelling characters in the film. Aang, Katara, and Sokka are all likeable and fascinating heroes and the villains are epic and threatening. Aang and Katara have a strong friendship in the film that was nice to see. Zuko was a well written and sympathetic villain which balanced well with the lebih cruel Zhao. Zuko and his uncle have a nice bond and their family relationship is emotional. From what I've heard about the tampil the api Lord barely appears in the tampil which is a unforunate problem that happens in shows and films where the "main" villain has his children and sidekicks do everything for him. Although the api Lord is pretty lazy in the film he has a fair amount of screentime which was a nice surprise. Azula has an awesome cameo that makes me wish that the film got a sequel.
Argubaly the film's biggest standout quality is the visuals. There are very few live action scenes as impressive looking as this film. The scenes of Aang practicing fight moves are visually impressive. The special effects of Katara's water powers look amazing! I was blown away oleh the fantastic sets and awesome action scenes. Although I miss and cinta Roger Ebert I disagree with him about the film's visuals. It was a wonderful treat to look at the film.
I can understand why fan don't like the film. From what I've heard about the tampil it sounds like the film doesn't represent it very well. However this film shouldn't be mocked just because it doesn't resemble the show. The film has a compelling plot, interesting characters, and some of the best visuals ever put to film. I recommend this underrated masterpiece.

This oleh far was the most epic episode I have seen in the entire series. Starting with Aang and Zuko's firebending training, right down to the final scene with Katara and Aang(nearly cried, but was clapping). It even seemed that Sokka's jokes were funnier! In my opinion, the best battle was Azula and Zuko's. The best moment was definetly a tie between Prince Zuko being introduced as the api Lord and the Final scene with Katara and Aang(no spoiler). The most epic moment, definitvely was the scene when Aang was securing api Lord Ozai and taking his bending skill away. Strangely, it can't be the end! Zuko met up with his father at the end to ask him about his ,supposedly dead, mother's whereabouts.
