Rotten Tomatoes Freshness: 39%
Critic Consensus: “Now You See Me’s thinly sketched characters and scattered plot rely on directorial sleight of hand to distract audiences — and director Louis Leterrier lacks sufficient cinematic prestidigitation to pull it off in the final act”
After Earth
Starring: Will Smith, Jaden Smith
Directed by: M. Night Shyamalan
Plot: A father and son crash land on Earth 1,000 years after humanity left and, with his father’s legs broken, Kitai Raige must set out across the hostile terrain to get to the tail section of their spacecraft and activate the emergency beacon.
RT Freshness: 19%
Critic Consensus: “After Earth is dull, ploddingly paced exercise in sentimental sci-fi — and the latest setback for director M. Night Shyamalan’s once-promising career”
