Anyone else think this film is kinda underrated

Look at all the negative critic reviews. I mean, Jesus Christ, they never relax when watching a film, it's why they have high standards. And look at the reviews for underrated films like pixels, x-men: apocalypse, warcraft: The beginning, ghostbusters (2016), The legend of Tarzan, Star Trek beyond, passengers, assassin's creed, etc. Damn, I'm off point here. So anyone else find this film underrated? (Take a look at my paragraph as to why)

I agree with the critic sentiment. I haven't seen this, mostly because of those very same critics. Maybe I'll bump this up my queue.

Definitely worth the watch, it's a very ambitious retro style sci fi. Makes me think of the original trilogy of Star Wars

I've seen the movie - loved seeing the girl from Under The Dome again! I really enjoyed it. I never really care about what critics say... they're too critical. I just want to watch a movie that's fun, that I can enjoy. There doesn't have to be a dozen underlaying messages and hides layers -- I'd probably be too dumb for that anyway

True, the critics are too harsh on films. But this was a very fun film that was totally misunderstood and underrated.

I haven't seen all the movies that you listed, but of the ones I have, they were terrible. I think you just like bad movies.

better than star wars/trek for sure... the only issue i have with the movie is that it turns into a lecture in the last 20 minutes with various characters taking turns telling the audience how it is... apart from that it's actually a great movie...
critics are often wrong

I liked Tomorrowland and I agree it may be an underrated movie, but... pixels!? Really, man? Your nickname is Star Lord, which I assume makes you a fan of Guardians of the Galaxy, which gives you at least 5 positive points to your taste in movies. And you mention pixels!? Blargh! It's not just a bad movie, it's a bad movie with stupid Adam Sandler in it! As for the other "underrated movies" you refer to, I've only watched X-Men Apocalypse and Star Trek - I liked them both, not a lot, just as much as I demand from entertaining movies. But pixels!?

What do you mean better that Star Wars? Hope you are talking about episodes I or II, otherwise.. well, otherwise nothing, but come on.
it does get boring right when Hugh Laurie starts explaining something about the machine, I didn't even pay attention to what he said.

I find StarWars a bit, diluted and it seems the appeal nowadays is in connecting the various trivia within the series of movies and spin-offs rather than any singular film experience... I do remember watching the cool fighter plane sequences as a child (stayed with me), but that's about it as far as the impact any of the films had on me... Maybe I'm just all starred out...
Tomorrowland had a bit of that cinematic magic for a bit...

I liked Tomorrowland a lot. There are some really fun & excellent scenes in it. With an IMBD score of 6.4, Rotten Tomatoes score of 50% and 49% in my opinion it is very underrated. The last 15 minutes and the "preachy" ending might have turned some people off. I personally gave it a score of 8/10.
