Well, I've always been a fan of the TV show, AVATAR: The Last Airbender, but this movie is just a summary of the first season. There is such little character development and their stories are so loosely told, that it almost makes it boring.
The exciting stuff, however, is definitely all the bending scenes. However, it seems like 85% of the time, when someone is about to bend, they have to do ten martial art tricks and THEN there's the small bending. The acting wasn't horrible, but Shymalan could've done SO much more with the actors by actually directing them. Sometimes, it felt as if a scene could've gone deeper or more lighthearted, but the actors seemed almost lost.
Honestly, if you like the idea of the 4 nations, and different control of the elements, then by all means, watch the television series. There's more fun and a lot more stories that make you care about the characters.
