Key Scenes:
A key scene within the film is when the protagonist, Casey Newton (Brit Robertson), comes face to face with the creator of Tomorrowland. In this scene as she discovers that the world she lives in is going to end and she is told that there is nothing they can do about it. This is important because although she has been told there is nothing she can do she still wants to try and fix it. The audience knows that she will go out of her way to try and fix it because that it how she is portrayed throughout the whole film. This also shows to the audience that the creator of Tomorrowland doesn't try and fix the world. He is determined there is nothing he can do about it however Casey desperately wants to try and fix it. This shows how the two different genders react within the film. Because the creator thinks he is the smartest it leads him to his downfall, making Casey the smarter one and ultimately the one who saves the world.

Key Micro-Features:
A key micro-feature is cinematography. An important part of cinematography is the camera angles and shots. When Casey first gets the pin that takes her to Tomorrowland it uses a mixture of wide angle shots and close ups. These are used to first show the surrounding/location and then the close ups are sued to show her reactions to what she is seeing. This is important for the audience as before she has gone Tomorrowland the film has been negative as the shots have been dark or really close and enclosed. But as she goes to Tomorrowland everything opens to make it appear that everything there is so much bigger and better. The shots used throughout the film are used to show the emotions of the characters and to show what their life is like.

Comparables: A film similar to this could be 'Room' (2015 directed by Lenny Abrahamson). This is because both the protagonists of the films (Casey and Jack) both come to realise that there are things so much bigger than they imagined. They both have similar cinematography styes. They both use close and enclosed shots to create the sense that everything is much smaller. The shots begin to change and get more open as they start to discover new things about the world.
