Critics vs. 'The Last Airbender': The 6 most savage quotes

"This is a film that resembles a video game in all the bad ways — Manichean premise, non-existent characterization, an obsession with dutifully explained "rules" — while still managing to miss out on the kinetic momentum of Xboxiness. If there has been a duller, more stagnant action film released this decade, I managed, thank God, to miss it."

Christopher Orr, The Atlantic

 

"The Last Airbender is an agonizing experience in every category I can think of and others still waiting to be invented."

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

 

"The Last Airbender is dreadful, an incomprehensible fantasy-action epic that makes the 2007 film The Golden Compass, a similarly botched adaptation of a beloved property from another medium, look like a four-star classic...it’s a tossup as to which is worse: the script, which regularly grinds to a halt to Explain Everything until the movie curls up and dies; the shockingly dingy camerawork; or the execrable 3-D. The latter comes in two modes: barely noticeable, as if the technicians set the knob at 1.3 and went out for lunch, or actively irritating. Really, I’ve got winking-Jesus postcards that look better."

Ty Burr, Boston Globe

 

"This colossal folly, the fiasco of the summer of 2010 — gives us all a ringside seat at the sight of Mr. 'I See Dead People's' career gurgling down the drain."

Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

 

"A joyless, soulless, muddled mess... It's bad enough that this is one of those glossy CGI monstrosities, utterly divorced from anything resembling reality; transferred needlessly to 3-D, it's just plain ugly."

Christy Lemire, Canadian Press

Interesting .. I have seen the movie 2 times and liked it. Its an amazing movie to watch yet I don't agree with the above statement. After all the critics are associated with the movies that everybody likes.
