    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Although not credited on the finished film, co-writer/producer Will Smith was responsible for much of the movie's direction. While M. Night Shyamalan was primarily in charge of the blocking (composition of shots, placement of the camera) and the visual aspects of the film (color and design), it was Will Smith who personally coached Jaden Smith in his performance and dictated the development of the story and the on-screen action. After both the story and acting were heavily criticized, Shyamalan decided to take the blame.
    • Goofs
      Cypher warns his son about Earth: "Everything on this planet has evolved to kill humans". Except that, in the movie, humans had abandoned Earth one thousand years before, so it makes absolutely no sense that any predator would "evolve" to hunt a prey that has been absent from its ecosystem for a whole millennium. That's exactly the opposite of how evolution works.
    • Quotes

      Cypher Raige: Fear is not real. The only place that fear can exist is in our thoughts of the future. It is a product of our imagination, causing us to fear things that do not at present and may not ever exist. That is near insanity Kitai. Do not misunderstand me, danger is very real, but fear is a choice. We are all telling ourselves a story and that day mine changed.

    In my opinion its a more emotional driven movie than a sci-fi.But still its worth a watch and i enjoy watching this movie.
    Today i seen this movie and i don't understand why this movie is receiving so many negative reviews and poor ratings.In my opinion its a more emotional driven movie than a sci-fi.It could be made more better but still its worth a watch and i enjoy watching this movie.Acting of Jaden Smith is okay.But i really wish Will Smith should have contribute major part in this movie.Art direction is not upto that mark, the interior design of space ship is really not that good as compare to those that we usually saw and expect from sci-fi movie but some scenes and cinematography of capturing earth's nature is spectacular.

    In my opinion its 6.5 out of 10.
