In fact, the director has been working very hard to express the theme of "Tomorrowland" with hope, dreams and never giving up . I expect you to be a good movie, but you really can't get better.
Filming in the way of cartoons, a typical Disney children's film, for adults to watch, does not even have the emotional plot that girls like, of course it is not satisfied.
In fact, I rejected it at first. After wandering for a while, I went to the cinema to watch it. The reason for the wandering is that everyone is good. It is really good.
The reason for going is that the effect of Tomorrowland in the trailer is very cool. I wondered how bad Disney's production can go, but my idea is still superficial. The coolest special effects of the whole movie have been shown in the trailer. I think the same people, you can watch the trailer, all the goods are there. Disney is showing good morals, investing 200 million US dollars, I am a local tyrant, I don't care about the box office, I just advertise, just have fun!

1. Briefly recall the plot below
At the beginning of the film, Frank, played by Uncle George Clooney, began to recall that he invented flying machines when he was a teenager and went to a technology fair. Such a cool thing, but because the honest Frank explained that the flying machine was a faulty product and could not fly, it was rejected, and the little Lori robot (called Athena in the film) next to him fell in love with him (later Athena explained that The reason for seeing him is because he doesn't give up, but the fact is that if Athena hadn't given him the badge, he would have given up), and gave Frank a badge, similar to a ticket, to enter the world of tomorrow created by scientists (which is similar to another A perfect world built on a planet), so Frank came to Tomorrowland under the guidance of Athena (this process is similar to the plot of a cartoon, Frank went out of nowhere, so far-fetched! There is no way for the director to arrange), Decades later, Frank has become a middle-aged man, the little Lori robot Athena is still the same, Frank is still alone, because Athena is the goddess of Frank's childhood! So Frank's view of the world was ruined by this little Lori robot Athena, and he didn't look for women. It can be seen how much influence people have on the formation of the three views at a very young age. At this time, Frank was also expelled from Tomorrowland by the governor of Tomorrowland 25 years ago. The reason for the expulsion is probably that Frank invented a machine to predict the future, predicting that it will be destroyed in 58 days, the probability of destruction is 100%, Frank heart Disappointingly, he gave up and waited to die in seclusion on Earth.
Until one day, Athena discovered Casey, and the film officially introduced another heroine. In the film, Casey's father was an aerospace engineer. The aerospace industry was in recession. The government was going to tear down Casey's father's work department. Casey disrupted the demolition team and was released by the police. At the same time, Athena saw all this and was arrested at the police station. Casey's father learned that she had been released on bail. At that time, Casey found a badge, which was given to Casey by Athena. Casey did not know at this time that this badge had the same appearance as the badge that Athena gave to Frank before, but the function was different. Frank is an entry ticket, and the badge given to Casey is a badge that can enter the fantasy world, that is, tomorrow's world as long as Casey touches it. His father's touch has no effect, only Casey touches it. Such a miraculous thing is of course attractive to a young rebellious young man like Casey.
Seeing this, you should understand the reason for the existence of the little Lori robot Athena, that is, the world of tomorrow sent to earth to find people who have dreams and do not give up, that is, such a robot with recruitment function. The reason for choosing Casey is that Athena thinks that Casey is also a girl who has dreams and never gives up. In fact, I don't feel how much Casey doesn't give up because of her dreams. In my opinion, at most, it is the betrayal of the youth. .
Athena brought a curious Casey to Frank's seclusion place. Frank refused to join Casey at first because he was waiting to die, but because of Casey's arrival, Frank's prediction of the probability of the destruction of the earth was based on 100% became 99.6%, so Frank allowed Casey to join, so they formed a team consisting of Frank, Athena the robot, Casey, and Frank was the captain, like a father with two people. Daughter went to the fantasy drifting version to start the journey to save the earth. Of course, in the process, they will encounter robots, but those machines are not opponents at all. They teleported to the Eiffel Tower in Paris and took a space shuttle under the hidden tower. Teleported to the world of tomorrow, when the governor came, Frank told the governor that Casey could save the world, so the governor brought their technology such as quantum acceleration into the high-dimensional space also mentioned in "Interstellar" ( five-dimensional space), the interior of the prediction machine that predicted the destruction of the earth. They touched the ball of a globe and could travel through time at will, checking the future and past of the earth at will. Casey asked the governor, knowing that your earth is going to be destroyed, why didn't you tell the people of the earth and send all the people of the earth to this world. The governor probably meant that the people of the earth were all barbarians, with interests, selfishness, rights, etc. It was built in secret by scientists. If all the barbarians knew about it, it would definitely not be built. If all barbarians came to this place, they would also be destroyed here. This is the governor's population theory. This place is only suitable for elites. Things like climate change, nuclear war, earthquakes, etc. all instill in the barbarians the prospect of a planetary destruction. The savages knew that this had to happen, so they naturally gave up. To put it bluntly, they just gave no hope to mankind. After a lot of words, the rescue team felt very angry. When you see this, you should understand that the governor is playing such a bad character. How obvious.
The Earth-Saving Alliance, led by Frank, began to think that the transmission of negative thoughts to human beings, causing human beings to give up on themselves, was the cause of the destruction of the earth. Therefore, they decided to destroy the prediction machine. The governor did not allow it. For the sake of conspiracy, then fight. After a while of fighting, it is obvious who will lose and who will win. The prediction machine was destroyed, and the badly bad BOSS was also killed by the portal. It's a pity that the little Lori robot Athena became a human bomb.
At the end of the film, Frank sent more robots like Athena to Earth from Tomorrowland to recruit more people with dreams.
That's the whole story.
2. What does the director want to express?
I understand that directors are trying very hard to express that giving hope is more important than disappointment. As long as there is a dream, hope, and never give up, nothing is impossible. The director is working so hard, I can't wait to stick the theme he wants to express on his chest and tell you who are watching the movie. Come on, everyone, I'm expressing that everyone must have dreams and hope, and don't give up. Then I'm thinking, in fact, I suggest that the director name the film directly: hope, don't give up and so on, wouldn't it be more in line with your liking?
The film is too superficial, and the storyline's expression of the theme is empty and weak. At that time, the lines of the film can be seen everywhere. I hope that this blunt theme will not be given up. If you really want to empathize with people and experience hope, there is nothing impossible. As a director, you should at least watch "Iron Fist Man" and "When Happiness Comes Knocking" how they are saying that they will never give up.

Only give three stars:
one for the little Lori robot,
one for the uncle's beard (I want to grow a beard recently),
one for the Disney in my mind, and
one for the positive energy theme,
the depth of the film's expression of the theme Very low standard, the special effects of Tomorrowland have all been shown in the trailer, minus one star.

    I also feel that this is indeed a big promotional film for a Disney theme park, and even the function of the promotional film is not so good. Perhaps in order to take care of the children's audience, the plot is too simple and foolish, especially at the end, it really ends as soon as the chaos comes. She is the same heroine as the chosen one, and the second villain. The only bright spot is that loli, and the bad expressions of the miscellaneous soldiers

Tomorrowland quotes

  • [last lines]

    Casey Newton: [voice over] First order of business... get the door back open. Couldn't hurt to get a few experienced engineers over here. Next...

    Frank Walker: [voice over] Put the party back on... and print out some new invitations.

    [Now cut to Frank and Casey speaking in front of an audience of androids like Athena]

    Frank Walker: Which brings us to why we're here today. A year ago, it was all supposed to be over... we shouldn't even be here, but we are. It isn't hard to knock down a big, evil building that's telling everybody that the world's going to end. What is hard... is figuring out what to build in its place, and if we're going to do that... we can't do it alone. We're going to need all of you...

    Young British Recruiter: [raises his hand] Frank Walker. May I ask a question?

    Frank Walker: Sure!

    Young British Recruiter: The search parameters you've given us, while mathematically sound, are a bit... undefined. Could you be more specific, please?

    Frank Walker: Well, Miss Newton. You want to tell our recruiters what they're looking for?

    Casey Newton: Dreamers... we are looking for dreamers. Anyone who will feed the right wolf.

    [start handing out cases of Tomorrowland buttons]

    Frank Walker: So... I once told your predecessor that she was nothing but a combination of ones and zeroes. I was wrong. She was much more than that. You are much more than that, too. So, go out there and do she would've done. Find the ones who haven't given up. They're the future.

  • Athena: There are things I need to tell you before the final... before the automated program kicks in. I'm a machine, I never thought that was bad until I saw your face when you found out I was.

    Frank Walker: I always knew...

    Athena: No you didn't...

    Computer Voice: Systems failing. Activating last thoughts saved for Frank Walker.

    [Voice-Over]

    Athena: Log 15. September. 1965. Frank Walker is looking at me in a manner that is difficult to recognize. It seems imperative to explain to him that I'm an audio-animatronic...

    Frank Walker: Athena...

    Athena: ...But I'm concerned that he may be adversely affected when he finds out that I'm not human. He has potential. I don't want to damage it. He needs someone to believe in him and I am fulfilling that need. He's my top recruit. Log 24. October. 1965. I'm having unusual thoughts towards Frank Walker. I suspect a flaw in my empathy interface. I'm thinking I should report it... but I haven't. I cannot explain why. Log 78. April. 1984. Frank Walker has been banished by Governor Nix. He says he's lost hope and he holds me responsible for having given it to him in the first place. I do not understand this. He says I never will, because I do not feel anger... or disappointment... or love.

    Computer Voice: End recording.

    Athena: I was designed to find dreamers... I found you... and lost you. But I found her... Casey. Dreamers need to stick together. It's not programming, it's personal.
