The Last Airbender
Holy shit, it's such a bad movie. If your a fan of the series, your going to puke out of your ears, if your not, then your only just going to hate it and probably carve 'outrage' into your calves. The acting is horrendous, in this modern day, we should be able to find competent child actors just hanging from monkey gyms, but it's like M. Night decided to take the lead actor of 'The Room', clone a few child versions of him and then dress them up like the three Airbender characters. Everyone else in the cast was just as bad, the Slumdog kid is meant to be a good actor (based on Skins and Slumdog), but I guess his only good when you have a sane director taking the charge.
The choreography is thumb snappingly bad, they literally have no clue what they're doing on screen and it's mind blowing that they coouldn't fart out some decent fighting action. I've seen random people on Youtube videos do a much better job at keeping me entertained with some decent choreography and I highly doubt that they had a $150 million to do it.
The movie fits very loosely around the plot of the main series, but that's something I can understand and I can appreciate when directors can create a quality two hour experience, while using the original plot as a framework instead of a straight adaptation. He didn't create a quality experience.
My biggest gripe with the whole movie is M. Nights writing and camera direction, he is a fucking ape with that camera, he has no idea what his doing. Every shot he makes, he makes thinking they are cool, but they just remind me of old straight to DVD Disney kid films. He should also never write a script ever again, he can't write, that's basically it, he CAN'T write. In his world, every character is a robotic word generator and it shows so badly on the big screen.
I have an extremely high tolerance when it comes to movies, I enjoy watching bad films and I go out of my way to find bad films. Hell, I even enjoy watching Japanese gore comedies about school girls getting robot arms and battling vampires, but The Last Airbender is a whole new level of bad. It's one of the few movies I actually despise, it's the only one that actually received a high budget, a few talented people and a great concept to fall back on.
Usually I'd recommend bad movies, songs and games, but I can't recommend The Last Airbender, I don't want to harm your world outlook by showing you how untalented people can be given hundreds of millions of dollars and free reign to what ever the fuck they want and get away with it.
