If you’re a Sci-fi movie enthusiast, then you’ll find this movie mildly entertaining. There are moments with shock value and futuristic creatures yet the weak storyline becomes predictable as the movie continues. This movie is really 100 minutes of Jaden building his acting skills to become a movie blockbuster contender in years to come; Will takes the backseat to let his son shine. ‘After Earth’ is not a flop and I did find myself routing for Jaden’s character, Kitai. This is a family affair movie in front of the camera, as well as, behind the camera. Will wrote the story and he and Jada are amongst the producers with M. Night Shyamalan as one of the executive producers the Director and screenplay. I usually don’t like films of M. Night Shyamalan yet this one gets a passing grade. It was good to see Zoe Kravitz in another movie. I also noticed another “pinkett” as a producer.
