Some decent special effects and futuristic gadgets. I like to think that the young hero could have used an action partner to make the story more credible. It was too improbable that only the father and son survived during the…

A good action adventure, sci-fi. I liked this movie a lot more than I expected to. I thought Jaden Smith carries this film with style and skill. And I liked the story too ( written by Will Smith). Granted, I came to this movie with…

I dislike seeing real kinds of animals recreated in CGI then interact with live action actors. On this planet the wildlife resembles Earth life but is different perhaps because this is Earth millions of years in the future or it is a case…

Very lousy. One of the worst performances of Will Smith's career, and the definite lowpoint of Jaden Smith's. I kind of feel like Jaden would not even be an actor if not for his father's good reputation and performance. Special effects are…

Good actors don't automatically make good screenplay authors. Decent enough movie, but not much logic involved. This same plot could have been used in other genres besides SciFi, with son having to save father, etc. Jaden needs to go to…
This really wasn't a very good film. Tense but slow moving. Nothing really gets resolved. Some good movies you don't mind seeing again. I won't be watching this film again.

Let's just say that my expectations were very low. M. Night Shamalamadingdong has a pretty bad track record as far as I am concerned so I thought this was going to be a total piece of crap. So, it turned out to be better than I expected.…
I really enjoyed the special effects and the lush scenery. I didn't care for Will Smiths performance but the movie really held my attention. I don't know why it has so many bad reviews I enjoyed it, to each their own I guess.

A touching story of a father and his whiny son who throws tantrums at every turn and needs to be on the mobile with his dad every moment just so he won't lose control and wet his shorts. The movie had some nice special effects. But I just…

After Earth is pretty violent and bloody. I didn't enjoy it but did realize during the middle that Jaden Smith is also the kid that plays the karate kid.

I LOVE the real black family promotion in this otherwise just another extreme GLOBAL WARMING propaganda,MK ULTRA brainwash,behavior placement,predictive program.
God-awful flick unless you're a 8-year old. OK Plot; bad acting; ridiclous dialogue. This is just another attempt by Will Smith to put (son) Jaden out there and "show off" his talents. At some point, Hollywood nepotism has to be brought to…

A decent sci-fi flick. I didn't realize until the end credits that it was directed by M. Night Shyamalan, who seems to have lost his golden touch in recent years. Will Smith does a great job, as always, while his son Jaden's performance is…

Piece of fluff movie to promote Jaden Smith. He is given everything on a silver platter so he doesn't have to earn his stripes to get a lead role in a big screen movie. Might be a good kid but acting isn't one of his talents.

This did not live up to its trailer. Written by Will Smith who has other talents but is unlikely to be a prolific sci-fi author. Stilted acting by all involved. Apart from nature scenes, much of it was (relatively) low-budget and, in…

Sci fi film that is ok at best, however for those with a shorter attention span, this may not be the movie for you. Starts off with a promising beginning, but the whole concept becomes lost. Most noteworthy as yet another pairing of WIll…
