When Smith eventually does his best to emote, he's hampered by some stiff dialogue. Another problem is Will Smith's matter-of-fact delivery, which could be explained away as the voice of a hardened soldier who feels no fear (a tactic called 'ghosting', which makes him invisible to Ursas), but it's distracting. This is the first time this kid has clasped eyes on this renowned planet but he doesn't seem all that fussed Jaden Smith might not be blessed with his father's cool charisma but he is asked to act solo for practically the entire movie, which isn't easy.

Its no classic, but its a special movie: spectacular and wise. Night Shyamalan, about a father and son marooned on a hostile future earth, is a moral tale disguised as a sci-fi blockbuster. One is the lack of wonder and awe he gives this alien landscape. This film from producer-costar Will Smith and director M. Dad's guidance will be needed as their cargo - a lethal creature called an Ursa, which tracks humans by sensing fear - is right behind him. Injured in the crash, Will is forced to stay put while Jaden sets off on some dangerous terrain to locate a beacon that will allow them to contact a rescue party, keeping tabs on the boy via a console. But while After Earth retains the director's innate seriousness, a solemn tone that's often unneeded, this is a solid sci-fi adventure yarn for its 12A age group.ฤก000 years since Earth was rendered uninhabitable, space ranger cadet Jaden Smith and legendary warrior dad Will crash-land on the planet, where everything - plants, animals, insects and weather - has evolved to kill humans (Australia, then). Night has built his reputation on moody adult thrillers and you'd be forgiven for expecting more of the same here.
