Science fiction film about a mysterious land.I personally found this film to be a bit of a struggle but I loved that scene in the "Blast From The Past" store. Memorabilia, toys and man-size props from old science fiction relics such as Lost In Space (1965), The Back Hole (1979), The Day The Earth Stood Still (1951), etc, are a joy to watch. I can't really put my finger on why Tomorrowland failed to impress me, perhaps it was the characters in the flick, or perhaps I was so distracted by the above mentioned "Blast From The Past" sequence that my mind simply drifted away to the 1950s/1960s???

Having endured no less than four of the interminable PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN movies, I had no stomach for sitting through yet another film based on a theme park attraction, yet when I saw TOMORROWLAND on TV I decided to give it a go. After all, the presence of the ever-charming George Clooney had to be a good thing, right? Actually, the answer is no. This is a cheap, superficial kind of film, an adventure fronted by kids in which the narrative seems to be made up of the stringing together of various genre tropes, all melded together with a big dollop of CGI. It looks nice, but I found it hollow in the extreme, lacking decent characterisation and any kind of depth whatsoever. Soulless, in other words.

My father was an aerospace engineer for NASA, in New Orleans in the 1960s. You can see why I was so excited to see this film. Finally, I thought, all of our hopes and dreams for the Space Age put into a film capsule, all of the ideas--even the classic jet pack! Then, CGI took over, and Hollywood's new penchant for shocking the viewer with POV character tumbles and other violence that would leave a normal human being incapacitated--if not altogether decapitated. Long story short, after my father lied to my mother and us children and said he had been laid off from NASA instead of taking his promotion in Seattle, which was the truth, I began to hate Science and Sci-Fi--a hatred that grew inside of me year by year. But, I always held a soft spot for Ray Bradbury's imagination, and this film looked like it would bring all of the disparate ideas and concepts together--and with a precocious lad and cute girl to boot. How could we miss? But, we did. Will Disney try again? I hope not. They get progressively worse as the years and decades go by. In any case, unless you thrive only on wild color and swiftly moving cameras jerking this way and that, skip this one. It promises so much, but it never delivers. I'd be willing to bet Ron Howard could do far better with the Space Age. Agree?
