The father and son must learn to work together and learn to trust one another if they want any chance of escaping Earth and returning home. With Cypher critically injured, Kitai must embark on a perilous journey to signal for help so they can return to Nova Prime, facing uncharted terrain, evolved animal species that now rule the planet, and an unstoppable alien creature that escaped during the crash. Earth was left in its prime state, and continued to live on its own.ġ,000 years later, a crash-landing of a small ship leaves teenager Kitai Raige and his father, army General Cypher Raige stranded.

In the near future, humanity was forced to abandon the planet forever after cataclysmic events, and they reestablished mankind on the planet Nova Prime, light years away from Earth, and managed to rebuild society. “After Earth” stars Jaden Smith, son of Will Smith and star of “The Karate Kid.” I’d rather re-watch a good Will Smith film any day of the week or even finally sit down with Wild Wild West than check out After Earth.“After Earth” doesn’t hit theaters until later this Summer, but we’ve got a brand-new trailer from the highly-anticipated sci-fi movie. This movie isn’t even worth a rent in my eyes. Night? Let’s all say it together, “What’s the twist going to be?” That’s all he’s really good for these days. And while I may have jokes about the whole ’70s mutton-chopped aspect of the film, let’s face it, how many dystopian futuristic movies have we seen in the last four decades? It’s a tired concept. To be fair, Will Smith can act, he’s a two-time Oscar nominee, but the other two … you can’t really sell me on. Instead we get Big Willie Style and the Karate Kid in the leads with the king of the cliche, M. This is a film that would’ve worked in ’70s two UK thesps complete with decades of Shakespearean acting to their resume, complete with shaggy hair, thick sideburns and cockney accents while the soundtrack would be sold on vinyl and located on the shelves next to latest Grateful Dead record. Will Smith is certified Hollywood gold … but man, this looks like an absolute turd, there’s no two ways about it. With Cypher injured, Kitai must embark on a perilous journey to signal for help. A crash landing leaves Kitai Raige and his father Cypher stranded on Earth, a millennium after events forced humanitys escape.

Theater, Rent, No Thanks, Undecided? No thanks. With Jaden Smith, Will Smith, Sophie Okonedo, Zoë Kravitz. That, and what’s up with Will Smith’s accent in the voice over? I don’t know, but I’m not going to risk finding out. It’s almost disturbing how this man’s name has become Hollywood kryptonite, but any project his name is attached to is (at the point) certified disaster material. Night Shyamalan attached, I’m steering clear. Despite the fact that it would be moderately interesting to see Will Smith and his son take on a sci-fi epic, with the name M. Theater, Rent, No Thanks, Undecided? No thanks.
