The much-hyped film itself feels overwhelmingly bland... I hope there are some young girls out there will take heart in seeing a heroic, science-loving teen girl onscreen. For everyone else, can I recommend staying home and reading Ursula Le Guin instead?

A futuristic Disney fantasy in a choppy and tiresome narrative.

The point of Tomorrowland is to encourage youngsters to think out of the box, stay positive and never give up. It's a sweet and inspirational message buried in a mire of cryptic plotting.

I wish -- oh how I wish -- it was a little bit better than it is.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 10, 2016

The aesthetics are easy to ape, but one should never underestimate the value Spielberg places on tight, clear, logical storytelling.

There's so much great stuff in this movie that doesn't even remotely hang together.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 7, 2015

It's hard to say exactly who the audience is for this packed-to-the-brim, sci-fi/action-adventure/family romp.

Though it's not director Brad Bird's first retro-futuristic rodeo, Tomorrowland is his most stridently sermonizing.

Full Review | Jun 2, 2015

It's a hard heart that would resist Clooney's appeal to his audience to just -- for once -- be amazed.

| May 28, 2015

An aggressively optimistic script admonishes the lazy and irresolute and urges humanity to end war and save the environment; the proselytizing burdens an already onerous plot.

| May 28, 2015

Exhilarating on every level.

| May 27, 2015

Submit uncritically to the spectacle, the in-the-moment rush. Soon the movie is whizzing off into the past and future with the wide-eyed elan of a spiffing theme-park ride.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 27, 2015

Although "Tomorrowland" never runs out of objects or ideas, its supply of dramatic fuel soon springs a leak.

| May 25, 2015

For a movie that celebrates dreams, Tomorrowland is too mechanically plotted and replete with robot-on-robot and human-on-robot violence.

| May 24, 2015

I liked it, but then I loved The Rocketeer, an opinion that proved as unpopular as the film!

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 24, 2015

Until its final act, Tomorrowland plays as a lighthearted techno-conspiracy thriller, Men in Black by way of Nancy Drew with the occasional whiff of Philip K. Dick paranoia and Pixarian high concept.

Tomorrowland is "Spy Kids" in space. Which turns out not be a bad thing although it may come as a surprise to those who have watched George Clooney do the P.R. rounds, hefting his epic charm as if it were Thor's hammer.

| Original Score: 3/4 | May 23, 2015

While Tomorrowland's sermonizing left me feeling grumpy... it may well have an entirely different effect on impressionable children.

| Original Score: 5/10 | May 22, 2015

The film's eco-friendly concerns and general tone of messianic optimism are welcome.

| Original Score: B- | May 22, 2015

Tomorrowland isn't terrible but, given its potential to be great, I left the cinema feeling rather sad.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 22, 2015
