Review of Tomorrowland (2015) by Movie1997 — 18 Jul 2015

It was really disappointing to see a movie with so much anticipation split people in half. While I'm not going on record saying that this was flat amazing, I will say it was honestly (in my opinion) that "Tomorrowland" was still really fun and inventive.

First off, it's visually stunning. Brad Bird has a very creative look and the concept was interesting for literally the first two acts. I'll get to that later. The characters I found to be quite interesting.

George Clooney is great as a gruff older man. Britt Robertson is also equally great as the female lead. But it's Raffey Cassidy as the little girl that steals the movie. Not only was she so unexpected, but she was a straight up bad-ass and served purposefully well in this movie.

The big problem with "Tomorrowland" is the last act. The message presented something that I first bought into at first, but it kept beating you over the head. And the big climax was a big let down.

And the ending doesn't leave you inspired because of its forced message. Other than that, I think the movie is quite a bit of fun with awesome action/visual sequences and great characters. If you didn't like it the first time, I want to recommend those to at least give it another try.
