There was a time in my life, decades ago, that I had to visit Disneyland and Disneyworld on a regular basis. I did not really mind and some of the attractions never lost their charm and magic. When I saw the promotions for Tomorrowland I tried to remember the attraction and could not. As forgettable is this film. I am for sure not the target audience, but there were Disney movies in the past which could hold my attention. This one put me to sleep and only the fact that the theater people cranked up the ac to the freezing point kept me awake.
I do not get it. I do not get the message of the movie. I did not understand why the girl wanted to destroy the NASA facility, but to ensure her father's employment. I did not see why the Tomorrowland portrayed would be something to strive for. Given, we saw very little of it. The wheat fields with the towers in the distance did not tell us anything about the future but maybe that we will eat more gmo food in the future and the short visits of the various kids showed us nothing but some people walking around in costumes and public transportation systems which exist basically everywhere but in the States. It looked like a commercial for the attraction, not something anybody would want to live in.
If I would have had any idea that most of the movie would be stupid fights with toy robots on steroids and a lot of explosions I would not have spent a dollar to see it. Somehow I was hoping for some kind of intelligent message which would tell our children to take care of our world to preserve it for tomorrow. I did not see it.
The original Disneyland was a good idea and has survived for decades and enchanted millions. Somebody dragged me into one of the Pirates of the Caribbeans movies at the time and I did not like it either. Sometimes you just cannot improve on something good. As for George Clooney. Boy, he looks old in this movie and he still cannot act. I hope he only made this movie to make enough money to buy new clothes for his wife, not because he is planning to become a father. He is too old for that.
