I just don't see how M. Night can really have that much control in a movie like that. What is going to do, yell at Smith and his son when they aren't pulling their weight onscreen? Haven't seen the movie, but from the trailers you have two actors and a bunch of effects.
Will Smith, an ultra powerful hollywood figure, is the writer, producer, and one of the two actors. The other actor is Will Smith's son. As director, M. Night is going to have much control over who does the effects either.
You have to put a huge part of this failure on Smith, in the same way Travolta is responsible for Battlefield Earth. M. Knight's majorly bad decision was to get involved at all.
