The Movie The Last Airbender got some bad reviews is USA. What do you think about the movie?
INFO:
Synopsis: The film is set in a fantasy world where the four elements of earth, air, water, and fire can be controlled through martial arts called bending, and the ruthless flame-manipulating Fire Nation is waging war to control the other nations of the world. At the same time a young boy named Aang, the last surviving wind manipulator or Airbender and is also the Avatar, the physical incarnation of the world itself who possesses the ability to manipulate all four elements, is on a quest to stop the Firebenders and save the world, with his friends Katara, a water-manipulating Waterbender from the South Pole, and her brother Sokka. But the skilled and vicious Prince Zuko, the banished Prince of the Fire Nation, is on the trail of the Avatar, seeking to regain his lost honor by capturing him.
Boxoffice news:
The Last Airbender harnessed an estimated $40.7 million at 3,169 locations over the weekend, bringing its four-day start to $57 million. That stood as writer-director M. Night Shyamlan's third highest-grossing opening behind Signs and The Village. The adaptation of the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender apparently had a significant built-in fanbase, because the picture's marketing did little to capture the uninitiated, besides showing off the movie's fantastical action and special effects.
Though attendance wasn't as high as Pokemon: The First Movie's debut, The Last Airbender has out-grossed the entire run of The Forbidden Kingdom (after out-gunning Dragonball Evolution on its first day alone), and its four-day start out-paced Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time's by 50 percent. 54 percent of Airbender's gross came from 3D presentations at 1,606 locations. Distributor Paramount Pictures' research showed that half the audience was parents and their children 17 years old and younger.
