After Earth
“Danger is real, fear is a choice.”
One thousand years after cataclysmic events forced humanity's escape from Earth, Nova Prime has become mankind's new home. Legendary General Cypher Raige returns from an extended tour of duty to his estranged family, ready to be a father to his 13-year-old son, Kitai. When an asteroid storm damages Cypher and Kitai's craft, they crash-land on a now unfamiliar and dangerous Earth. As his father lies dying in the cockpit, Kitai must trek across the hostile terrain to recover their rescue beacon. His whole life, Kitai has wanted nothing more than to be a soldier like his father. Today, he gets his chance.
This film delivers a stark, perilous journey through a beautifully rendered yet deadly alien world. It's a tense, earnest exploration of survival and the complex bond between a father and son, set against a backdrop of grand, desolate sci-fi spectacle. The mood is one of isolated struggle and a determined push forward.
