Review of Tomorrowland (2015) by Can1235 — 21 May 2015
Tomorrowland is a great movie that will evoke memories of childlike wonder from adults and just childlike wonder from children. The movie starts a bit confusing, with 2 of the 3 main leads giving a tiny bit of exposition, and then showing you some backstory for George Clooney's character before dropping you into the main story.
From there, we meet a young woman who finds a pin dropped into her belongings by a mysterious young girl. From there, the story becomes a highly original and great one, while sometimes a bit messy. One key detail to not about this movie is that despite it being named "Tomorrowland", the titular place is just the main point everything else happens because of.
It's more about getting there than being there, and the final act does suffer a bit because of it. All 3 main actors play their roles amazingly, which is a treat considering 2 of them are children. The special effects are also very well done, and the movie uses them to add some very needed twists on typical sci-fi tropes such as lasers and teleporters.
Overall, I'd say this movie is very worth the trip, even if the destination, while still fun, isn't quite the payoff you'd think.
