What are your thoughts on Tomorrowland? I saw it yesterday and wasn't really a fan. It had a lot of cool ideas, but I thought it was executed rather poorly.
Beware! Spoilers kind of ahead!
I liked parts of it. Whenever George Clooney’s character was onscreen- young and old version- I was really enjoying the film. It was also an original story, which is so rare in Hollywood today with reboots, sequels, and prequels, so I admire it. Also, Brad Bird is an amazing director, and it is an astonishingly beautiful-looking film.
However, it was not exactly executed well pacing and message-wise. I won’t say that it was a bad movie, I liked parts of it, but some of it felt to slow, especially the beginning, and that talking to the camera thing as unneeded, until it got to Clooney’s character. Towards the end it went too fast without explaining things very well and then it started calling the girl the Chosen One when she didn’t do anything except say that she has control over her own destiny, which is what a lot of people know already. Clooney actually did everything hero-wise, she was just there to be the girl that did it (however, I think Brad Bird meant for her to be the hero, he just didn’t execute it right). Sadly, themessage at the end was so hammerd in that it got a bit annoying. But I can say that I’m glad that I watched it, because it was still an entertaining movie.
