It\’s shitty it took him getting his ego checked with a disastrous Shyamalan movie to realize that, but whatevs.

All I have to do is make sure that no one\’s ever better than me and I\’ll have the love that my heart yearns for. And I never released that [feeling] and moved into a mature way of looking at the world and my artistry and love until the failure of After Earth, when I had to accept that it\’s not a good source of creation."

Meanwhile, on Earth…

I understand that if you weren\’t looking at the movie in a certain way it would seem bad but it has a good story line and Will Smith speaking in monotone all the time only contributed to the story and why he was who he was. Even though some people (including Will Smith himself) think the movie was a horrible failure I think he did good as the character he was portraying as did his son so in my book Will Smith was not demoted, but rather in some way promoted.

I really like the guy, I think he\’s a talented and highly charismatic actor. Yes, like someone said before, the biggest mistake of his career was to turn down Django Unchained for After Earth. I believe that he would\’ve been better than Jamie Foxx and made the character less passive. Will Smith is electric on screen and I hope he can get back in the game.

Me and my son loved the story and the acting. There is a deep emotional lesson inside, learn to control yourself, free your mind. Quite the movie that you keep remembering. So maybe less people than Black Men watched it but it was a much more immersive experience. Thank you mr Smith
