"Return to Earth" is not as good as everyone's evaluation, but it is obviously not sincere enough. The film can basically be said to be another acting training by Will Smith and his son after "When Happiness Comes Knocking", but the viewing effect is far less than "When Happiness Comes". The Pursuit of Happiness". Since the starting threshold is not low, for Jaden Smith, who is still in the stage of struggle, it may be slightly harsh to be placed on high hopes, and the weakness of the script itself has become the biggest reason for the poor response of the film; the giant eagle in the film It's cute, the monster Ersa is cool, the high-tech shapeshifting knife is cool, and Jaden Smith's expression is hard.

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?
