Oh, what fresh hell is this? 'Guardians of Tomorrow' parades itself as a monument to the persevering spirit but comes off more like a knock-off figurine you’d find at a roadside gas station. Truly, what more can be wrung from the depleted rag of post-apocalyptic ventures? Timothée Challahmet's earnest alien soldier struggles valiantly against the weight of already tired tropes, and Scarlett Johamson injects her con artist with as much depth as a kiddie pool—an expected turn in career roulette. Steven Spielbird, once a purveyor of wonders, seems to have taken a sledgehammer to his own bejeweled legacy, shaping this derivative landscape that we've tread far too often. The film, crawling with the inevitability of ‘promise to protect,’ presents itself with all the subtlety of a neon sign in a monastery. Its PG-13 rating is fitting, cloistering itself from the raw, visceral truth of human endeavor, opting instead for a sanitized foray that caters to the masses. In truth, while 'Guardians of Tomorrow' may very well fancy itself a defender of cinematic virtue, in reality it's the antagonist from which original filmmaking must be shielded.
