Review of Tomorrowland -- Movie

There are two wolves- one is evil and one is good. The two are fighting. Which one wins?

The one you feed

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and girls, welcome to tomorrow land. A land where dreamers go and invent some new and very interesting things. Frank Walker is a young boy who goes to the 1964 New York World Fair to showcase the jet pack he has created (which by the way "technically flies"), so that he can win the 50 dollar prize money.

He is turned away but not before a young girl, Athena, hands him a pin. He follows her and a few others and is transported to a new world, a fantastic world, with technology from the future.

Now coming back to the present, a teenage girl named Casey, breaks into a NASA base station,which is up for demolition, and fries all the cranes. The next day her dad, who is a NASA engineer, tells her that new cranes would be coming in soon and demolition will take place as scheduled. When she goes again that night to break in she gets caught and is jailed.

She makes bail, and in her personal effects she finds a pin. When she touches it she is transported to the world we had seen before. It doesnt last long and she tries to find more about the place, and if she can go there for real.

From there she ends up meeting Athena, and finally Frank, who isn't so young anymore. A gang of robots follow them and try to kill them. They escape, and a man, a robot and a teenage girl make their way back to Tomorrow land. Who were those robots? Why did Athena give Casey the pin? And whats all this talk about an apocalypse? How is Casey connected to all of this?

The first half is quite long, but the story picks up after the intermission. Also the editing is a little rough. Raffey Cassidy who plays Athena is absolutely wonderful. The plastic smile on the robot's face gives you the jitters. There is also a small cameo by Keegan-Michael Key, which to his true nature will make you laugh.

You get this a wonderful overwhelming feeling when you watch the movie. Its visually spectacular and the story line fantastic. The sequence with the "The Eiffel Tower" and the rocket launch, just one word or rather sentiment, WOW.

One of the realizations you get while watching this movie is that we need more people asking questions and dreaming and have an active imagination. And that's what Disney is about. Imagination.
