I watched the anime series and enjoyed it very much. This movie was a big stinker. The acting was awful. The condensed storyline didn't flow. The character development was lacking. A movie with potential ended up sucking big time.
Do not watch this movie and waste your time. Instead rent the anime dvd's called Avatar: the Last Airbender.
Netflix summary:
In a world ravaged by the Fire nation's aggression toward the peaceful Air, Water and Earth nations, reluctant youth Aang (Noah Ringer) learns that he's an Avatar -- a rare being who can manipulate all four elements and restore peace to the planet. Now Aang must join with his pal Katara (Nicola Peltz) and other allies to fulfill his destiny. M. Night Shyamalan directs this live-action adaptation of the animated series "Avatar: The Last Airbender."
I love watching movies. For the last 20 years, Both my wife and I have watched on average if not more than 365 movies a year. I have decided to keep a journal of all my movie experiences. Enjoy!

Salt
I was surprised at how good this movie was. My expectations were lower because of Angelina Jolie's last movies and figured this would be about the same.
The storyline was good, the pace of the movie was fast, and overall the entire film was very entertaining. I would highly recommend watching this movie. Cheers!
Netflix summary:
After she's accused of being a Russian sleeper spy, rogue CIA agent Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) goes on the run, using every tactic, accent and disguise she knows to elude her pursuers, clear her name and protect her husband. Her supervisor, Winter (Liev Schreiber), buys her story, while counterintelligence officer Peabody (Chiwetel Ejiofor) decidedly does not and will do anything to stop her in this fast-paced, intrigue-filled spy adventure.

Suck
This movie Suck turned out not to suck. It was a vampire comedy film and had more than its fair share of laughs. If you are in the mood for a decent movie that will make you laugh I would recommend watching this one.
Netflix Summary:
Singer Joey (Rob Stefaniuk) and his band, the Winners, will do anything for rock 'n' roll immortality. So when vampire Queeny (Dimitri Coats) bites into bassist Jennifer (Jessica Paré), the musical wannabes prove that vampires can rock, but stardom too often sucks. Malcolm McDowell stars as a vampire hunter, Henry Rollins as a radio show host, Iggy Pop as a producer, Alice Cooper as an evil bartender and Moby as a rock band's lead singer.
This movie sure had a lot of big musical names in it. Check out the cast:
