When I first watched "Your Tomorrow", I found it boring. I think I was expecting there to be interviews with people about Ontario Place, but was disappointed that there aren't any. I decided to watch the film again and, surprisingly, I appreciated it a lot more. Yeah, I changed my mind. It helped that I knew what to expect.
"Your Tomorrow" is about the aforementioned Ontario Place, a venue and park in Toronto right by Lake Ontario. It used to be a theme park, but that was a long time ago. This film actually doesn't give a lot of history about Ontario Place. In fact, I don't think there's any talk about why people love it or maybe there's barely talk about that. There's only some stock footage. The film is mainly about people who work at and visit Ontario Place in the 2020s, obviously not too long before the film was released. There are a few scenes of people protesting redevelopment plans. Visitors relax and walk around. They spend time at a beach. There are at least a couple of eccentric people. One guy describes a beach he's on as "the greatest piece of art that humanity ever made". To me, that's kinda funny because it just looks like a regular beach. There doesn't seem to be anything really special about it.
The workers have to deal with concerts at Ontario Place. For example, Lynyrd Skynyrd is going to perform. Maybe it would've been nice if we could *see* that concert, but unfortunately, none of it is shown. This irked me the first time I watched the film, but I forgave it while watching it again. Maybe the filmmakers couldn't get the music rights. The film has a lot of quiet moments that I liked. It's well-shot. For example, the footage of a sunset is nice. The music is often gentle and it sounds very good. If you previously spent time at Ontario Place, the film might make you nostalgic.
Like I wrote, it took me a second viewing to enjoy "Your Tomorrow". I don't think it's great, but I do think it's a good time capsule. While you don't get much history about Ontario Place, you do get interesting cinematography, music, and dialogue. I recommend watching the film.
