There's no way around it, Tomorrowland was both one of the biggest box office bombs of 2015 and the worst movie of Brad Bird's career by some distance. Earning just $209m worldwide against a budget of $190m and scoring a Rotten Tomatoes score of 49% (by comparison, the director's previous four features had all scored at least 93%), the movie's ambitions and visuals were undermined by some seriously muddled storytelling. However, one of Tomorrowland's saving graces is a brilliantly inventive action sequence that takes place around the midway point of the story. In something that comes across like Home Alone jacked up on steroids and kicked into a technologically-advanced alternate version of the present day, George Clooney's Frank Walker and Britt Robertson's Casey Newton defend themselves against an invading squad of robotic henchmen using a combination of elaborate booby traps and good old-fashioned blows to the head. The sequence is Brad Bird at his breezy best, merging both CGI and practical effects to create a breathless action scene that is head and shoulders above anything else in the movie.
