Four and a half stars.

Unexpectedly good movie.
I gotta get the name Rafe Cassidy down like I did Emma Watson. I like this little girl.
One movie can tell me to watch all the movies she has acted in, even if it is a small supporting role. Think about it, why did I survive that "Doomsday"?
Such a little girl makes you feel that there is still a need to save this world. I happened to be reading "The Pilgrimage of Tingke Stream", and the text also provided a good enough reason for the existence of this world. One hundred years, one thousand years, ten thousand years.
No matter how hopeless this world has become, the beauty it has produced...
won't it make you sigh with joy every time you think about it?

The story of Tomorrowland, or the idea it offers, has been ignored for so many years.
So many years.
Asimov killed his dreaming robot in 1986. Much earlier than that, it is obvious to sing about the future.
Rightfully so. World War II ended in 1945 and the Cold War began in 1947. At the same time, no one has ever claimed that the world was stable and peaceful in the intervening two years. We, everyone, living and dead, are responsible for this. When the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the warmongers, Disney or Miyazaki weren't nailed to the pillar of shame -- should it be a miracle?
So I'm happy to ignore Tomorrowland's inadequacies. To be honest, I don't see any inadequacies worth speaking out about.
—Isn’t Cassidy enough?
I'd love to write a thousand gratifications here.

    Frank Walker: And then everything went to hell...

    Casey Newton: Oh boy...

    Frank Walker: Well it did...

    Casey Newton: So you gave them like one second of blue skies and jetpacks and hope...

    Frank Walker: It's important! They need to know the stakes!

    Casey Newton: I think they can figure out clocks counting down are bad.

    Frank Walker: Do you want to tell the story?

    Casey Newton: No, you're doing fine.

    Frank Walker: Because if you think you can tell the story better, I would absolutely love to hear you try...

    Casey Newton: Wow really?

    Frank Walker: Really!

    Casey Newton: Well I guess technically I am more qualified...

    Frank Walker: Are you? How so?

    Casey Newton: Because unlike you... I'm an optimist.

  • Nix: Oh, bollocks.
