what we're after in the movie

Although this movie has star productions and some, it rarely resonates with people. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is very difficult for audiences of any age to resonate with this movie. The scene of the earth after returning to the earth does not seem to be the focus of the film, and it is covered in one stroke. On the contrary, the father-son relationship between the leading actors has always been emphasized in the film, but the incomprehension and contradiction between father and son occupy a lot of After the son proved himself, the relationship between father and son suddenly improved, it felt very abrupt, the son had to become like his father to be able to prove himself? Does a father have no confidence in his son at all?

But when my son was looking for his own abilities, it is reasonable to say that it can resonate with the public, but it didn't. Maybe the plot was not ups and downs enough. I thought it might be that the subject matter was too far from reality, but then I thought that the Avengers series is not good enough. Is it also different from reality, and I can find resonance in the Avengers.

All in all, there was no problem watching this movie completely smoothly, but without the resonance it should have, and without any special mood swings

After Earth quotes

  • 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?
