The promise of something gigantic, luring you to the world of the future isn’t quite fulfilled at the end. It leads more to dystopia. This is one of those old school fairytales that are fine, but I can’t shake the feeling that they could be better. Clooney wasn’t right here and the young cutie is certainly no child. Laurie dominates (although not so much at the end) and the effects are super. Don’t be put off by the criticism. Despite my reservations, I liked it a lot. P.S.: I was pleased about the band of acquaintances from Stargate and the geeky merch in the store.

Brad Bird already proved in The Iron Giant that he has a flair for retro children's stories. Tomorrowland continues with a tribute to the 1960s and the futuristic positivism of the time. And like Saving Mr. Banks, it's a story from real Disney history. Which in and of itself is fascinating.

Cute, a little bit stupid, non-offensive. What more can I say about Tomorrowland? I can see that the movie had great ambitions; digitally, it was amazing and George Clooney wouldn’t take just any gig, but the overall story is so strange that it’s actually a good thing that they only ended up shooting one movie. The first time, it was okay with my eyes half-closed, but if I were to watch it again, I’d have to have a blindfold on.

Brad Bird tries to be the same fanboy as Abrams, but while J.J. is a geek and also a sophisticated filmmaker, Bird lets the material slip through his fingers and and churns a 130-minute feature film upside down just to make it work. But it doesn’t quite work. Apart from breathtaking visual effects and a wannabe pseudo-mission, it has nothing to offer but a routine Hollywood standard, and that's not enough for such an ambitious and grandiose project.

At first I got worried when I say this is a Disney production, but in the end the film exceeded my low expectations and I had an above average time. I was slightly disoriented by the first half because of the flashbacks, but I got used to it and accepted the creative play that this was a teen sci-fi flick and not a dark blockbuster, with the kids in the theater predominating. Decent visual effects, a fascinating world of tomorrow, a fairly unorthodox premise, nice actors and a decent pace. The highlight was definitely the robot attack on George Clooney's house, who outsmarted everyone with his inventions and gadgets. PS: The cameo by Keegan Michael Key was a delight. 70%
