My husband and I are huge fans of the cartoon series. We've been excited about the release of the film for weeks, so we decided to see it today, on opening day.
I was dismayed at how bad it was. The actors were stale and seemed a poor choice for their roles. All the major characters had distracting pronunciation differences in their names. Momo and Appa were nearly meaningless additions, hardly more important to the movie than the clothes on the characters backs.
If you love the cartoon series, don't let this film blaspheme your memories of it. If you like 3D films, don't spend the money unless you enjoy dark, blurry movies with virtually no 3D effects.
The average critic store is 21 out of 100 on Fandango.

The Onion:
"[N]one of the care and craftsmanship evident in projects [Shyamalan] originated, even lousy ones like The Happening, find their way into this movie. So what does that leave? A lot of headache-inducing CGI-effects sequences, many scenes of children doing tai chi, and some imperiled magical fish."
