I saw almost all the movies of Mr. Night Shyamalan: The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs and The Village; and I have an idea about his other movies: The Happening and Lady in the Water. The Last Airbender is completely out of the usual style of its predecessors, Mr. Night use to give us a new perspective of known and unknown things, simple and complex, with an intelligent storyline, strong believable characters, and a message. None of those things is present in “The Last Airbender”, it is completely shallow.
Because I respect Mr. Night and his record, I did a little search about the work, and found first that the story is an adaptation of an animated series: “Avatar: the last air bender”, which was a big success according to the ones whom watched it, they even say that the movie has completely destroyed the spirit of the series. Secondly I found that the movie was hated by the majority (specialists and audience) -so it is not just me-, and it received with the director respectively the worst picture and the worst director award of 2010 (which I think is exaggerated).
From a talented and an intelligent writer and director like Mr. Night, this movie can not be a mistake, it must be deliberately and purposely done this way, I don’t believe he is the one who puts to much effort and money in something he knew that it will be a disaster, I think it is a kind of an audacious experiment he is conducting on us, which we will see the results in the coming years.
