Critics Consensus

The Last Airbender squanders its popular source material with incomprehensible plotting, horrible acting, and detached joyless direction.

Sukhdev Sandhu Daily Telegraph (UK) A quite breathtakingly inept hodge-podge of vapid spirituality, playground chopsocky and visual effects that take 3D to an entirely new level: Zero-D. Rated: 1/5 Jul 18, 2014 Full Review Jim Schembri The Age (Australia) This empty, misfired epic from M. Night Shyamalan is boring and strengthens the claim that he is the worst director working in mainstream cinema today. Rated: 1/5 Sep 16, 2010 Full Review David Sexton London Evening Standard How did Shyamalan get it so wrong? Rated: 1/5 Aug 19, 2010 Full Review Joseph Tomastik Loud and Clear Reviews The Last Airbender is a bad film ... But I don’t think this is an absolutely terrible catastrophe of a film or even a disrespectful adaptation. Nov 20, 2024 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review The Last Airbender plays like it should be the work of a low-grade hack with little-to-no experience behind the camera, but instead, it’s by a director who not so long ago was praised as one of today’s finest new storytellers. Rated: 1/4 Aug 18, 2023 Full Review Rene Jordan El Nuevo Herald (Miami) Visually catastrophic. [Full review in Spanish] Oct 19, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member I can't say anything about this because I'm so appaled. 🤮🤮 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/17/25 Full Review Mr K it was a comedic classic it had so many jokes Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/12/25 Full Review Audience Member trash movie. my brother hated, my sis hated it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/08/25 Full Review Audience Member Honestly the worst movie I’ve ever seen. This movie honestly is a disgrace to the avatar franchise they mispronounce many names and things they call aang ong and sokka is now sowka and if you like the avatar fear not because the ovitar is here it seems like M. Night Shaymalan read the Wikipedia of avatar and based this movie of of it. There is just lore dump after lore dump. Kitara literally just serves a purpose of spilling out plot synopsis throughout the entire movie. For some reason also they decided to change how fire benders work they decided to make them need a flame source to use their abilities which in the show they just use their inner chi so it makes the fire nation very less intimidating because all they really have to do is put out flames to stop them. Also the acting is very flat the only actor I can give kudos to is the actor of zuko he is the only one who gives at least a tiddlywink of effort in his role. Also the actor of sowka sounds like he’s on the brink of crying in every line he says with also does not sound like sokka because he is a witty character in the show this sokka sound so serious for actually no reason and the worst sin This movie commits is being actually so bad at the end of the movie the earth benders literally do a whole synchronized performance to move one pebble and in one scene the water tribe they visit when being attacked they line up and the man screams and they just like jiggle their weapons around like their all having brain aneurisms But yeah this movie his poorly directed and just awful casting and it’s just so disappointing that this was the movie we got to such a phenomenal show Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/01/25 Full Review Adrian C MasterPiece of cinema Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/03/25 Full Review Filippos S I was never a fan of anime but I knew it was good. Well this movie sucks. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/23/25 Full Review Read all reviews
