Critics Consensus: After Earth is a dull, ploddingly paced exercise in sentimental sci-fi -- and the latest setback for director M. Night Shyamalan's once-promising career.

Reviews

Deep Focus Review

Brian Eggert

Regardless of the potential here, a neutral, lifeless tone prevails over every aspect, from the direction to the acting to the special FX, but especially the dull script by M. Night Shyamalan and Gary Whitta.

“After Earth” is a sleep-inducing bore that hasn’t the material or performances to rise above its faults.

This film is sometimes-brutal survival flick that doubles as a closet-clearing of emotion for a critically injured father and his petrified son.

The film's potent scenes of lachrymosity make the voyage worthwhile, at least until the unimaginative monster shows up.

Herald Sun (Australia)

Leigh Paatsch

An indecipherably inert action flick sees out-of-form director M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense) stuck in the same snoozy rut as his worst film, the notorious The Last Airbender.
