When
talking about a bad movie, After Earth pops up in my mind immediately, which according to Tomatometer, is rated
3.8 out of 10 on average. It basically
talks about how a crash landing leaves Kitai and his father Cypher get stuck on
Earth, a millennium after events forced humanity's escape. As his father becomes
injured, Kitai must run across the hostile forest to recover their rescue
beacon.
To be
fair, this father-son work isn’t as bad as it might have been: Jaden plays an
intriguing figure, and there’s some nice visual design. However, the action is
super slow and the most disappointing is the film’s lack of ambition, as what
could have been a dramatically amazing space opera becomes just another more-of-the-same
jungle chase movie. The film fails not only as science fiction but also as a
drama and an adventure. Overall, I give
this movie a 2 out of 5 for the lack of excitement and surprise it brings to
me.
