It's undeniable that Netflix's adaptation is a reminder of how much we missed the world of Avatar. It's still so much fun, and there's still so much to learn with messages that ring even more true today... Go to Full Review

The result is a charming but imperfect adaptation that vastly improves upon the 2010 film — but never soars quite as high as the original animated show. Go to Full Review
Laura Babiak Observer 02/23/2024
The Netflix adaptation is far from a disaster, but it doesn’t master the elements that made the original so good. Go to Full Review

Getting to grips with Avatar sometimes feel like wrestling a giant flying buffalo. But when it does achieve lift-off, this tale of a follicly challenged magic teenager bouncing off clouds is a breath of fresh air. Go to Full Review

It understands that the series is working toward Aang's mastering all four elements and what it means to travel the world, pick up new fighting techniques, and make new allies and friends who could come in handy in the battle against the Fire Nation. Go to Full Review

R H @notherviewr 1d Moments of charm but unfortunately dialogue is wooden and unsubtle to the point of being majorly frustrating to watch. If this were because the intended audience was children, they probably wouldn't show so much killing. Can't figure out why they didn't make it more natural in the moments that aren't acrobatic. Feeling spoonfed. See more Jeffrey T @RT94382428 2d Available in 86 different languages, not one of them Russian. Hollywood is more concerned about being a social justice warrior than bringing entertainment to all the people of the world. Russian is the national language of 9 different countries, and there are more than 3 million people in the US from Russian speaking countries, yet Netflix wants to punish all of them because of the actions of one man, Vladimir Putin. See more Khotso M @RT49625051 3d This isn’t an adaptation, this is fan fiction. There’s way too many changes from the original storyline to even call this an adaptation, and what’s worse is that the changes aren’t even good ones. See more Thomas W @ThommyWheels 3d Hot take, but I very much enjoyed the Avatar Last Airbender live action Netflix Series… Season 2 was much better than the first. Avatar the last Airbender is my favorite show of all time, and usually I don’t really like live action adaptations. But season two was very entertaining visually very impressive, and clearly well thought out. For starters, the acting is much better in season 2 minus a couple of moments. It is clear that the actors poured way more into their performances, and much better understood their characters in season 2. The new Toph character did amazing, Zuko was insanely lovable, and surprisingly, Azula was well adapted. Much of the other cast understood where there flaws were, and majorly updated their performances as well. There were some poor writing choices, but I feel as though most of them made sense considering character and story development, and even complexity as well. I’m actually a fan for some of the changes they made. Some* See more Bailey S @RT26729358 5d The First season was Amazing I watched the whole first season in night. I love the characters and there back stories. The actors are amazing. The directors, cast and crew and everyone else who help create this wonderful show has taken it to the next level. I was so excited to watch season 2 and now I’m watching it now. I love the twist and turning each character. One of my favorite character is General Iroh. It’s compassionate kindness to Zuko touched me as he is a father figure to him and Azula one of the best and beautiful villains to ever be played. I have to say well done everyone! 🤩 See more Apoorva M @apoorvamodi Jul 12 Really enjoyed seeing the live adaptation of the series I am a huge fan of! See more Read all reviews
