Sinopsis(1)
Un aterrizaje de emergencia deja al joven Kitai Raige (Jaden Smith) y a su legendario padre Cypher (Will Smith) atrapados en el planeta Tierra, 1.000 años después de que una serie de catastróficos eventos obligaran a la humanidad a escapar de ella. Con Cypher herido de gravedad, Kitai deberá embarcarse en un peligroso viaje con el objetivo de mandar una señal de socorro, enfrentándose a un territorio desconocido, a nuevas especies de animales que ahora rigen el planeta y a una imparable criatura alienígena que se escapó durante el accidente. Padre e hijo tendrán que aprender a trabajar juntos y confiar el uno en el otro si quieren tener la oportunidad de regresar a casa. (Sony Pictures Esp.)

La película comienza de forma prometedora. Tiene una interesante visión de ciencia ficción, bellos efectos visuales, y el tema de la unión de un padre y un hijo mientras se hacen conscientes tiene un gran potencial como película. Pero el resultado, a pesar del agradable encanto de la aventura, es narrativamente anodino y emocional y mentalmente falla por completo el objetivo previsto. Es así, cuando sabes lo que se supone que debes experimentar como espectador, pero por su ingenuidad y subdesarrollo se te escapa por completo. Mucho de esto se debe realmente a Jaden Smith, o quizás a su dirección por parte de Shyamalan.

Shyamalan demostró una vez más que no es malo como director, pero que no debería escribir sus propios guiones. La historia es primitiva, llena de demencia y clichés. El Smith joven en el papel principal no se queda atrás. Sin duda se podía sacar más provecho de un tema interesante (de la mente de Will Smith) que de una ciencia ficción de aspecto caro y sin argumento sobre una relación padre-hijo.

This movie has such a precise filmmaking that it’s almost a shame that it’s ruined by individual moments that I simply can’t look past. After Earth is a great movie with an interesting premise and a directing that Shyamalan really nailed. But the really decent overall quality is ruined by, for example, the relationship between the father and the son, thus between Will and Jaden. I thought that it was all too serious and over-the-top. Actually, I didn’t manage to form any kind of relationship with them throughout the entire movie. It felt as if two human robots were on screen. A father with a broken leg talking all sorts of nonsense due to a delirium and a son with a mission that not even the best SAS unit could take on. I was also bothered by some of the individual scenes, like the one in which Jaden jumps off a mountain. I was getting over that for quite some time. But hats off! Shyamalan can still shoot the movies he himself believes in, even with a compromised career. And then the entire movie ends up looking really great, but after about twenty minutes of a “wow” atmosphere comes some sort of a nonsense that makes me sick to my stomach.

Two stars, because unlike The Happening, sometimes something actually happens here. It doesn't make sense, but neither does the story itself. It was as if Will was inventing it half asleep over his son's bed. But what kind of bastard tells a child a similar sectarian and emotionless story of subordination? A Scientologist? Shyamalan films some of the scenes under sedation - otherwise, he wouldn't miss how the dad and son rubberized him. The icing on the cake is a kind of eco message grafted on Moby Dick for unknown reasons. Cruel for a fairy tale, naive for a drama, lame for an action film. I hope the idiot who once called Shyamalan the new Spielberg saw this film. He should kneel and tell us how he feels. And the Indian master should retire to sniff turmeric. Which, of course, will finally happen. Judging by the effects, this is a huge $130 million fraud.

Jaden Smith is a supremely unlikeable brat who happens to have a charismatic dad who’s burying him a successful career by pushing him hard into production and acting. And the film itself? An embezzlement of a 130 million budget, though better than Shayamalan's last three flicks, but that’s nothing to be proud of.
