Ok well I saw the movie today. Here is my .02 on it. AND NO ITS NOT FUCKING RACIST, JUST BECAUSE IT HAS A LOT OF INDIANS AND ASIANS IN IT DOES NOT MAKE IT A RACIST MOVIE!
1. Disregard the critics, they are just being assholes
2. Acting: (B-) The main actors for most of the movie are kids and their lines can be a little choppy or forced from time to time but otherwise, they did a good job.
3. Script and overall plot: (A+) Pretty much copied straight from the TV show. No complaints there, he did an awesome job of sticking to the show and he conveyed the scenes pretty well.
4. 3D Graphics: (B) Meh, honestly he didnt use 3D to the full potential. There isnt much that comes and tonics in your face and makes you go wow. The fight scenes are tame since its a PG movie but the bending of the elements and how its shown is spectacular.
5. Casting and Makeup: (A) The people who play the characters almost look like they have been torn from the show and put on screen.
6. Character Development: (C) Not that well done but honestly if he would have done more, it would have been a 4 hour long movie. Also it slightly assumes you know the general theme of the show and have at least seen the show
OVERALL GRADE: B-
Recommend to watch: Yea if you are a fan of the show or have free time. Keep in mind its a kids movie so its not gonna be anything spectacular.
SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!! Hes gonna make at least 2 more Avatar movies
