 Outstanding ending! And hope for more to follow! August 31, 2008
This whole series has been outstanding. I've come to know it as an over 40 mother of a 7 year old and have been completely impressed with the whole series - I think I was more excited waiting for this installment than my son was. I was sad thinking this would be the end but the very last minute left the hope that more could follow, The series is much more than just martial arts, though it handles that very well - it's about character development and inter-relationships - it has serious plot development carried through from beginning to end. Every dvd has been pre-ordered and I can recommend the whole series highly enough for both adults and children.
Awesome August 29, 2008

Avatar August 28, 2008
My 8 year old son loves this movie!!! He watches it almost every day for the past 3 weeks.
My family loved it! August 25, 2008
Our 5 kids have really gotten into Avatar and were very excited to get this DVD when it came out. They all loved it and watch it over and over.
 Closure August 22, 2008
Volume four takes the viewer through the last six episodes of the Avatar cartoon series. Avatar has been a quality cartoon from day one, and does not disappoint: if you keep in mind that is a cartoon, and nothing more.
In the Southern Raiders, Katara and Zuko take a trip to confront the demons of her past. Katara is forced to choose her path, and goes through some character growth here. Zuko's response to it in the end delivers a question Aang can't answer.
In the Ember Island Players, the kids watch a play chronicling their journey. They each (well, except Tuff) see a piece of themselves they're not entirely comfortable with. No one except Aang seems to do much soul-searching over it, so its value is only in poking fun at the main characters, which I actually enjoyed.
Sozin's Comet is a four-part episode. Aang agonizes yet again. Everyone says he has to kill the Firelord, which goes against everything he's ever been taught. He goes off on his own to meditate. Everyone looks for him. Yeah, I know, we've seen this before.
Aang gets alot of advice he doesn't particularly like, but comes to accept. Meanwhile, the other kids prioritize, and get their acts together to do something about the Firelord's plans.
When the Firelord comes knocking, Aang is ready to face him. Here we see Aang (and bending in general) doing things we've never seen him do. He comes into his own as the Avatar. Even before going into the Avatar state, he shows that he really is a master of the four elements. It's a cartoon, but it's cool. Meanwhile, Zuko and Azula go at it.
Aang goes into the Avatar state and unleashes hell. Then he does something even all the avatars of the past didn't know was possible. Katara pulls a final trick out of thin air and shows herself a true master of waterbending.
There is rarely a cartoon that comes along and pulls me in like this. Entertaining, clean, action-oriented fun that anyone in the family can watch. The characters grow in skill and maturity throughout the series, and the stakes keep climbing, right up to the end. I give this conclusion four stars.
