Movie Review- "Tomorrowland"

Wow, two blog posts in a row! I know right, guys?! Who are you and what have you done with Eve Thompson? Well, I'm bored. Believe it or not, but our last day of school was on June 4. Wow! We got out early. But I go back to school late too, like August 31. So I get a looong vacation. I know most people would kill to have a long vacation, but I hate being bored! And I'm a hypocrite, when I actually do go back to school, I long for a vacation. So sue me. Okay, consequently I went to the movies today. Yes, out of boredom, but "Tomorrowland" was playing.

Here is Rotten Tomatoes' summary: 

 

From Disney comes two-time Oscar (R) winner Brad Bird's riveting, mystery adventure "Tomorrowland," starring Academy Award (R) winner George Clooney. Bound by a shared destiny, former boy-genius Frank (Clooney), jaded by disillusionment, and Casey (Britt Robertson), a bright, optimistic teen bursting with scientific curiosity, embark on a danger-filled mission to unearth the secrets of an enigmatic place somewhere in time and space known only as "Tomorrowland." What they must do there changes the world-and them-forever. Featuring a screenplay by "Lost" writer and co-creator Damon Lindelof and Brad Bird, from a story by Lindelof & Bird & Jeff Jensen, "Tomorrowland" promises to take audiences on a thrill ride of nonstop adventures through new dimensions that have only been dreamed of.(C) Walt Disney.

"Tomorrowland" was a bit overrated in my opinion. The fight scenes were incredibly staged and I didn't really get the special effects. Overall, though, the plot line was good and the acting was incredible and I don't say that about many movies. "Tomorrowland" promises action, adventure, and futuristic fun, and it delivers. And I'm not just saying that because George Clooney stars in it. So, if you're bored and you don't think anything good is playing at the theater right now, give "Tomorrowland" a shot.
