Netflix’s live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender adaptation received its debut Rotten Tomatoes score.Avatar: The Last Airbender’s first season debuted on Feb. 22 on Netflix. It currently sits with a critics’ score of 60%, just barely making its “fresh.” The live-action adaptation fared much better with audiences, as it currently holds an audience approval rating of 75%. The mixed score falls far short of matching the perfect 100% score of the original animated series, which holds a 98% audience score. M. Night Shyamalan’s feature film adaptation, released in 2010, has a 5% score with critics and a 30% audience score.A negative review from AV Club critic Jenna Sherer stated, “In the end, it’s hard to say who this version of Avatar is for, exactly. Fans of the original will be disappointed with the show’s charmless, uncanny-valley riff on the world they know and love. Newcomers may be put off in general. There’s an argument to be made for live-action versions of beloved animated series; Netflix’s own One Piece, for example, is a rollicking remix of the classic anime that gleefully embraces its cartoonishness. Avatar: The Last Airbender tries so hard to heft the weight of its legacy that it ends up sweating bullets.”
