AFTER EARTH **

3 on 5 The new unloved blockbuster Shyamalan door meeting on the first big-screen Will Smith and his son Jaden . For many, this will be his only good quality : the first incursion of the author of the fantastic Village was lynched in the United States and continued his career in the jeers , the French public is an exception for it a success significant at the box office .

Announcing himself as an eco- fiction film to finally impose initiatory journey , After Earth takes place a thousand years after the evacuation of the Earth. In the colonies of Nova Prime, Kitai ( Jadem Smith) failed to become a Rangers despite its effectiveness in the field, to channel his impetuosity , his father invited him to join an expedition to the area . The ship ran aground on the Earth due to an accident and they are the only survivors , injured and reduced to immobility , Cypher (father ) sends his son to explore the scene to find a point of reporting ; Kitai will face aggressive wildlife and an alien creature who took the fall to escape.

Simple and clear in its implications , After Earth follows a straight line , the principle is predictable, the interest is to pass tests in parallel with the father-son relationship in full (re) construction. During this journey into the unknown where Kitai is guided by his father remained in the ruins of the device , it must , in real terms , to be the height of the Rangers , which included more than and separate from his fear ( claim this principle suggests Scientology [ as the determining presence of a volcano , a key element of its genesis ] , which is accused After Earth to be a showcase of mass).

The reduced background and survivalist bubble of this post- apocalyptic Earth amplify confidence and emotional closeness , the pace is slow , the intimate atmosphere , it is a path towards reconciliation and maturity for this young and this is in this way the film touches the right. The area is to the emancipation of the son , taking the risk of freedom while disappearing from the lap of his father and a padlocked society where his impulsive temperament and flying led him to say , but no pass dams in a condescending hierarchy. For the rest, the big seal told Shyamalan was brilliantly used , as take the opportunity to develop novel creatures and provide vision both dangerous and almost a dreamlike world where nature has taken over the all of its rights.
