The House of Tomorrow (2017)
51KThe House of Tomorrow: Directed by Peter Livolsi. With Asa Butterfield, Alex Wolff, Nick Offerman, Ellen Burstyn. The film tells futurist, architect, and inventor R. Buckminster Fuller’s incredible story through two teens hoping to get laid, become punk gods, and survive high school.
“What really shines in the film are the actors. Asa Butterfield and Alex Wolff are good, I dare say Nick Offerman is great. Not so much Ellen Burstyn, who had a cardboard role and a similar approach to it. The story is also interesting, although polluted with some tough to swallow cliches like u0026quot;the teenage kid that never had soda and speaks like a dictionaryu0026quot; or u0026quot;the nasty but good at heart kidsu0026quot;. But once you get over those, the film is very pleasant. There are some scenes that are just wonderful.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBottom line: coming of age story with a nice happy ending, an exploration of the teenage angst from the eyes of a naive and sheltered child raised in the spirit of futurism by a nutty grandmother. I recommend it.”
