After Earth Movie Review | |
| The movie takes off from a concept as basic as a videogame, and it sticks to that concept, without surprise. Owen Gleiberman-Entertainment Weekly A film in which the text and subtext-an effortlessly gifted father presses his less-talented son to follow in his footsteps-are in perfect alignment. Alas, only in one of the two does the story end happily. Christopher Orr-The Atlantic By the standards of M. Night's Shyamalan's recent films, After Earth is surprisingly not horrible. David Edelstein-New York Magazine It's no classic, but it's a special movie: spectacular and wise. Matt Zoller Seitz-Chicago Sun-Times It's impossible to take this movie seriously, certainly not as seriously as it takes itself. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor The characters are emotionally neutered; the average viewer won't care about them. The pacing is plodding and uneven. James Berardinelli-ReelViews Nepotism has always been part of the Hollywood firmament, but it's sunk to a new low with Will Smith's vanity vehicle for his 14 year-old son Jaden. Susan Granger-SSG Syndicate M. Night Shyamalan's malformed ode to father/son bonding in the year 3000 on an abandoned planet known as Earth is frighteningly bungled from the very first pedestrian shot. Brandon Judell-CultureCatch A character notes that Earth is now overrun by all manner of frightening creatures, but those expecting the thrills of King Kong's Skull Island will be sorely let down -- heck, even those expecting the thrills of Vacation's Walley World will feel cheated. Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing Nevermind M. Night Shyamalan's cumulative global box-office grab of $2.5 billion on total production budgets of $665 million. Numbers lie. "After Earth" is a wasteland riddled with cinematic trash. Adam Fendelman-HollywoodChicago.com How could species evolve over the course of a mere thousand years to get a serious hate on for human beings, when *no humans have been on the planet that entire time*? Pete Vonder Haar-Houston Press After Earth is the sort of picture the Mystery Science Theater 3000 gang would salivate over. Tyler Hanley-Palo Alto Weekly Nap Time! Willie Waffle-WaffleMovies.com ... neither a terrible sci-fi'er nor a very good one. It's a capably handled escape with above average CG effects. Adolescent boys looking for a Saturday afternoon time-killer could do worse. Glenn Lovell-CinemaDope Is there a more satisfying career implosion than that of M. Night Shyamalan? Jeff Meyers-Metro Times (Detroit, MI) Jaden carries himself well in this futuristic adventure, which was filmed in a variety of lush locations around the globe. Leonard Maltin-Leonard Maltin's Picks no better than Rebecca Black's "Friday" video. It's a bought-and-paid-for vanity piece for a spoiled teenager Kevin Carr-7M Pictures After Earth is an extremely uneven and flawed film, but for moviegoers who are intrigued by the initial premise, it's not the throwaway disaster that some might claim. Ben Kendrick-ScreenRant Think The Happening, plus bloodthirsty baboons. Matt Patches-Hollywood.com As the story of a son desperate to please a perfectionist celebrity father, 'After Earth' may be more worthwhile for future Smith family biographers than for action fans. John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) After Earth is the cinematic equivalent of Rebecca Black's "Friday" - a parent-funded vanity project gone horribly wrong and thrust out into the world for the rest of us to not enjoy. Mike McGranaghan-Aisle Seat I suppose we should be grateful that there isn't a half-buried Statue of Liberty or an empty, deteriorated football stadium. Jeanne Kaplan-Kaplan vs. Kaplan At least people won't be shelling out extra cash for 3-D glasses for this 2-dimensional bomb. David Kaplan-Kaplan vs. Kaplan All the neat visuals on Earth can't cover up that this is a movie Will Smith is hoping will make Jaden a star. Kristian Harloff-Schmoes Know | |
