After Earth Movie Review | |
| Most disappointing is the film's lack of ambition, as what could have been a sparky mainstream space opera becomes just another tedious jungle chase movie. Tom Huddleston-Time Out 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 cinema posters have been bearing down on us for months - but now that this dreary, near-lifeless, suffocating excuse for a film is on the silver screen, few will be able to spot the difference. Graham Young-Birmingham Mail After Earth is dragged down by, yes, Will Smith's apparent desire to share his boring concerns about parenthood with a blameless audience. Donald Clarke-Irish Times The script basically has its legs broken as badly as Will Smith's. Widgett Walls-Needcoffee.com It takes itself far too seriously, wasting Will's natural charisma and easy going screen presence. Henry Northmore-The List It's not often that a movie makes you think, Good riddance to humanity. Margot Harrison-Seven Days The problem is that the film is chockful of clichés and stymied by production design and CG effects that look as if the worst of the Star Wars series was being devoutly copied. Derek Malcolm-This is London This is Smith as you've never seen him before - a humourless bore. Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express Apart from the odd effective sequence, this is nothing but a by-the-numbers survival story peddling contrived emotion, glittering sets and repetitive CGI peril. Alan Jones-Radio Times Writer-director M. Night Shyamalan, who hadn't made a truly great film since 2002, returns to form with this exciting and well-paced adventure Forrest Hartman-Reno Gazette-Journal Umm....no. Bob Grimm-Reno News and Review The dialogue is platitudinous and delivered in stilted accents. The structure is that of a very dull video game made by someone who once watched The Lord Of The Rings. Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK] A sci-fi drama of such incredible boredom that your synapses will be turned to Bostik, featuring a triple-whammy of abysmal acting, directing and story. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK] It's [Shyamalan's] most bearable film in years: a meagre feat, perhaps, but one we might as well be honest about. Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph ... the lame video game story line and nauseating narration of After Earth will certainly give you a queasy feeling that will make you grasp for an air sickness bag. Elias Savada-Film Threat It is all as predictable as Christmas, assuming your Christmases, like mine, start feral before turning cosy. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times While I understand the critical backlash towards Shyamalan, I disagree and found After Earth to be a solid movie, not great but good. Lori Hoffman-Atlantic City Weekly An unqualified disaster in the purest sense. Adam Woodward-Little White Lies Ultimately, it's a workmanlike sci-fi thriller that never really manages to erase the stain of Hollywood nepotism. Tim Evans-Sky Movies A Will Smith vanity project that never delivers the Will Smith type of entertainment we expect. Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com Will Smith is the very embodiment of movie star charisma and Jaden might be a chip off the old block, but here, they're obliged to be po-faced and just plain un-cool. This is Earth, but not as we know it. Stella Papamichael-Digital Spy | |
