Tomorrowland

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% (05/27/2015)

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. (12/16/2015)

I had quite a few laughs and a lot of fun watching this, especially thanks to the slightly pedophilic aging inventor Frank with his house full of surprises and Hugh Laurie as the villain. Britt Robertson was also great here, unlike in The Space Between Us. The story had a decent pace. It’s just that the over-the-top politically correct ending was about as enjoyable as if the filmmakers had slapped me with a dead mackerel. (08/24/2017)

Disney presented another beautiful vision, which is simply visually stunning. On top of that, you still get a story that's nicely family friendly, but with grittier moments here and there. But don't expect blood, of course. If you like Disney, you'll get what you expect, maybe a little more. I took away a nice warm feeling from the film. For a small instant, one believes that there is hope for humanity. (10/01/2015)

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. (11/23/2016)
