The movie is good. I honestly never looked at reviews before seeing the movie because I was such a fan of the cartoon. I was shocked at the reviews after leaving the movie. Now a days everyone wants super violent action packed movies. This movie is beautiful to watch. Amazing background and moments to rest and reflect. My kids can actually watch it. Many "kid" movies these days are so scary and violent. I really enjoyed the last Airbender and I felt like all the actors were well casted. I guess I'm in the extreme minority on this but I really liked this movie.
