Acting: The acting made me feel each characters personality. I felt there
were times the expressions were a little over-done for the scene.
All and all I liked it.
Special Effects: Nice balance between special effects and natural scenery.
Audio: The sound effects synced well with the special effects and the
music enhanced the mood of the scenes.
Movie Message: Even a super person has to apply themselves to be great.
Recommended for: Any person who likes adventure and can separate themselves
long enough from reality to go to worlds you've never imagined. A
good family movie for all ages.
My Comment: The Art of Bending is not part of my reality; nor have I ever seen
somebody perform it, but when I leave my reality at the menu and
press the play button, this movie makes it possible. This story
intrigued me as the plot developed, luring me to figure out what
was next. I was pulled into the personalities of the different
characters and was moved as their lives changed before me. The
Avatar brings balance to an unbalanced world in interesting ways.
You might experience his power also and have a change in heart.
