Tomorrowland

Tempted to just skip writing this essay and just tell y'all straight up- This movie was BS.

Maybe that's too blunt... This movie had some good elements (very few I may add) but definitely did not outweigh the bad. One moment of redemption for this film was Hugh Laurie's speech towards the end of the film. 

I've been waiting a year to see this movie and I'm a fan of Britt Robertson (woman lead). But for goodness sakes this movie was so boring. I kid you not, I actually dozed off a few times during this 2 hour feature.

3/10 stars

First lets state the obvious:  A girl (Casey Newton played by Britt Robertson) touches this mysterious pin and it brings her to Tomorrowland. Now considering the film is titled this, you'd expect a good portion of the film to occur in this foreign land. Second, she needs to get there with the help of this grumpy man aka George Clooney as the pin malfunctions.

The movie lagged and the journey to get back to Tomorrowland almost seemed pointless, considering we were never there for a long time to begin with (Perhaps that would have worked better as a sequel pitch). Britt Robertson's character (Casey) is an optimistic and intelligent girl who strives on finding solutions. She doesn't care what the problem is but is intrigued and inspired by what others are doing about it.

I don't want to reveal too much... But this so-called Tomorrowland is depicted as a scientific utopia. Sadly along the way Casey discovers that the latter may not be true.

What this film lacks is depth.  The film was in the trenches but managed to stay afloat thanks to the acting efforts of Britt Robertson. Clooney wasn't anything special, if not merely the new Harrison Ford of this day and age.

I believe the moral of this film is great however its message was lost in translation and its poor execution didn't leave a strong enough impact. Ultimately I think the film aims to draw awareness to humanity's lack of want to truly change the world's doomed fate.

As for the score music, it was childsplay. 

Overall, considering the cinematography, graphics, storyline and acting I could care less about venturing to Tomorrowland.

I rate this film 3/10 stars.

Good elements of film:

• Storyline had potential

Bad elements of film:
