Having endured no less than four of the interminable PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN movies, I had no stomach for sitting through yet another film based on a theme park attraction, yet when I saw TOMORROWLAND on TV I decided to give it a go. After all, the presence of the ever-charming George Clooney had to be a good thing, right? Actually, the answer is no. This is a cheap, superficial kind of film, an adventure fronted by kids in which the narrative seems to be made up of the stringing together of various genre tropes, all melded together with a big dollop of CGI. It looks nice, but I found it hollow in the extreme, lacking decent characterisation and any kind of depth whatsoever. Soulless, in other words.
Thus was all over the shop as so many others have observed, which for me was encapsulated by the vaporisation of the three cops investigating the exploding sci-fi store: for a family friendly Disney film their sudden demise seemed incongruous! Plus the protagonist commits arson setting Frank's combine harvester on fire.
Poor poor film, too many bots giving 10/10 and a "fantastic sci fi experience" im not being paid so i can tell you its rubbish.
This movie is done in a style that literally doesn't exist anymore in movies...the style takes you back to a time that was "magical", to when Disneyland was brand new, and Disneyworld Orlando was in construction...Tomorrowland is not just scifi, it is the magic of what our futures can hold.Never mind that the movie itself is a bit choppy in presentation, with a story line that is, frankly, hard to follow at times. Crazy as the story may seem at times, it always keeps you wondering what's next...
