When I first saw the trailer for the Disney flick, and saw Gorge Clooney was going to be in it, something in my gut thought it was strange he would do a film like this, but now I get it.
Tomorrowland is a place where the most creative science and art minds alike are selected to freely create without worrying about politics, capitalism, and other things that can stop this progression. But all good things must come to an end, and it's up to George Clooney as ex-boy genius Frank Walker and his like minded teenage sidekick to prevent that from happening.
It's a perfect film for former animation director, Brad Bird. Its a live action cartoon as fun and exciting as the Disney attraction its loosely based on. I'm a fan of what the mouse house refer to as imagineers and I feel the movie celebrates these people.
The movie also self serves Clooney's wanting to save the world from itself, hitting us over the head like a blunt object with the idea that the world complains too much about its problems and how it could use a place like Tomorrowland to change it.
The message might have carried over better if it was a Disney animated feature that tends to tell a better story, keeping politics out of it.
Overall, it's fairly easy to get over the fact that Clooney is selling his message and to just enjoy the movie for the fun action adventure flick filmed with some great sci-Fi visuals, that it is.
See it today not tomorrow.
