From Alonso Duralde of “The Wrap“:
Granted, Will Smith isn’t behind the camera here — that unhappy task has fallen to M. Night Shyamalan, who’s still basically the trustee of Movie Jail after “Lady in the Water,” “The Happening” and “The Last Airbender.” Still, the elder Smith gets a “Story by” and executive producer credit, making “After Earth” the equivalent of a very expensive bar mitzvah, one where dad’s a successful cantor and his son could have used another month in Hebrew school.
I don’t know… The Fresh Prince on the bimah sounds sort of cool. Even if the kid’s Torah reading needs some work.
But I’m from Philly.
