Here's what the critics are saying:
The movie takes off from a concept as basic as a videogame, and it sticks to that concept, without surprise. — Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
The disappointingly generic film, which strands a father and son on Earth a thousand years after a planet-wide evacuation, will leave genre audiences pining for the more Terra-centric conceits of "Oblivion," not to mention countless other future-set films that find novelty in making familiar surroundings threatening. — John DeFore, The Hollywood Reporter
You can’t blame Will Smith for wanting to give his son a leg up in the business. Maybe one day Jaden will have his father’s career — and his ability to carry a movie. For now, it’s a little premature to ask him to bear the weight of this soggy, waterlogged “Earth” on his skinny shoulders. — Michael O'Sullivan, The Washington Post
There is no small irony that this sci-fi action adventure is about surviving a serious crash. The scorched earth left behind by "After Earth" is sure to leave a scar on everyone involved. — Betsy Sharkey, LA Times
