The Twilight Zone: Replay (2019)
Condescending
Condescending... that is all.
Um... they are telling me my review is too short, so I'll just add: It's a really disappointing episode. Speaking as a brown man, I feel that everything they did with the character of the Cop was ridiculous, unbelievable, and just awful.
At the end of the day, we are all humans. Humans are flawed. You can explore that with the cop. It would be more interesting. But I feel like it was super racist, all around.
The Last Airbender (2010)
As the worlds greatest Avatar Fan, I feel as if I've been kicked in the gut repeatedly.
I may write another review later. For now I'll just keep it quick. I like to think of myself as the worlds greatest Avatar fan. I've been waiting for this film since December 2006. And no that's not a typo. I happened to know Night was going to do the movie one month before it was announced. And I was so excited.I was greatly disappointed. I'm sure if you were totally unfamiliar with the series the movie would have been fine. I on the other hand was left feeling as if I was kicked repeatedly in the gut. There was no set up, so I was not invested in the characters at all. I could not care less what happened to them because the movie never even tried to show you who they were as people. As a movie, this gets a 5/10. As an adaption, it gets a 1/10. The writing was much better on the Nickelodeon Series. Night totally changed the mythology. He couldn't waste 5 seconds to say that "The Avatar State was the combination of all of Aang's past lives' power and experience." I feel totally betrayed. From the reviews, I knew it was going to be a mess, but I felt like I had to watch it in theaters. It's kind of like when you go to a funeral and you have to see the body one last time.
When it's all said and done, I'm left with the feeling that the Avatar gang MUST have had when they got through seeing The Ember Island Players! Am I right fans?! You all know exactly what I'm talking about.
OH! And the Avatar should have killed Zhao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
