After Earth

Some things are not as bad as they say. An element of the film is that children with a sad past want to work hard to prove themselves, rather than being absolute and alluding to reality as some media say. The performances of the father and son are somewhat reluctant. With "Knock on the Door" Zhuyu in front, the pressure is always unavoidable. Acting... How was Sandra Bullock criticized back then? Not after the closure! First of all, a film under the banner of sci-fi did not satisfy a lot of fans in this area in terms of special effects; secondly, in emotional dramas, the handling of family relations was relatively repressed, and the relationship between father and son was mainly through language rather than in ordinary films. "All-round" rivalry; in the end, the bigger the fame, the bigger the disappointment. However, this is a film that at least kept me from fast-forwarding and dozing off.

Cypher Raige: Inventory up.
Kitai Raige: Roger. Food rations, half available. Flares, full. Med kit, half available. Breathing fluid... Breathing fluid, four vials available.
Cypher Raige: [looks Kitai's heart rate increases] Why are you not showing me the case?
Kitai Raige: What?
Cypher Raige: Show it to me now.
Kitai Raige: I thought that I could make it, sir.
Cypher Raige: [after seeing the analysis report] Abort mission. Return to the ship. That is an order.

Kitai Raige: No, Dad. I can do it. I don't need many. I can get across with just two.
Cypher Raige: You need a minimum of three inhalers to make it to the tail. You have exhausted your resources.
Kitai Raige: I can get across. I can do it with just two, Dad.
Cypher Raige: This mission has reached abort criteria. I take full responsibility. You did your best. You have nothing more to prove. Now return to the ship.
Kitai Raige: What was your mistake? Trusting me? Depending on me, thinking that I could do this?
Cypher Raige: I am giving you an order... to turn around and return to this ship.
Kitai Raige: You wouldn't give any other Ranger that order?
Cypher Raige: You are not a Ranger. And I am giving you that order.
Kitai Raige: [pause] What was I supposed to do? What did you want me to do? She gave me an order. She said, no matter what, don't come out of that box! Was I supposed to just come out and die?
