'After Earth' in Gwinnett Theaters Today (Sponsored)

After Earth is playing in several theaters in Gwinnett County: AMC Colonial 18 Theater, Lawrenceville; AMC Sugarloaf Mills 18, Lawrenceville; Movie Tavern Horizon, Suwanee; Regal Snellville Oaks Stadium 14, Snellville; Studio Movie Grill, Duluth; Regal Hamilton Mill Stadium 14, Dacula; Regal Mall of Georgia, Buford.

After Earth, in theaters now, promises to be the movie event of the summer – and how could it not be, with Will Smith and his son Jaden starring as stranded space rangers—one still in training—on the unrecognizable planet Earth 1,000 years in the future.

All grown up since the last time he shared the screen with his dad in The Pursuit of Happyness, Jaden plays a teenager named Kitai Raige, who reaches out to the father he never knew, a legendary ranger named Cypher, for a little guidance. An interplanetary mission meant to be a bonding experience ends in a crash that injures Cypher, leaving Kitai alone on the ground to survive with some help from dad. Some lessons, like how to escape a blood-thirsty alien and act like a man, are best left to dad to teach, and make you realize every day is father’s day.

Directed and co-written by M. Night Shyamalan, After Earth offers a classic coming-of-age tale with mind-blowing special effects and acting to match. So grab your cozy sweatshirt and prepare for the ultimate father-son adventure!
