Our take
Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender is a PG kids adventure. Aang and friends race to protect an ancient power, with elemental fights and a child hero in quest danger. It is not a horror film. Families who already watch Avatar should be fine from about 8
Uplifting themes
Peace, culture, friendship, and responsibility Aang and friends trying to do the right thing Culture and balance are themes
Story (may spoil tone)
Avatar Aang, the world's last Airbender, learns of an ancient power that could save his culture from extinction. With the help of his friends, he embarks on a global quest to find it before it falls into the wrong hands and threatens to upend the peace they sacrificed everything to achieve.
