Movie Review: "Tron: Legacy" (2010)A surprisingly vivid motion picture event movie from Hollywood prime studio "Walt Disney Pictures" based on an under-appreciated original from summer of 1982, when new Hollywood arrival director Joseph Kosinski convinces the Disney Studio exécutives with amazingly-drawn of cyper-space, contrast-stark as laser-beaming scenarios of transformation, this time for young and talented-beating actor Garrett Hedlund as the character of "Flynn Junior", learning the craft of "Disc Wars" and "Digital Motorcycle Racing" to find his digital-incorporated father in reprising role portrayed by original leading actor Jeff Bridges as non-stop highly-stylized action sequences seem to remain a stunning revisiting venue, even at 4K home entertainment play-stations, as new introduced characters as in-computer prime digital beings, given face by Olivia Wilde to overall balanced science-fiction spectacle of high-gloss photography by cinematographer Claudio Miranda and beat-pushing as evergreen-becoming high-pitching original soundtrack by French connection musical artists "Daft Punk".Copyright 2018 Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC

So, after being only 1 year old when the first Tron came out, getting to watch it decades later in the late 90's didn't really feel like anything special. However, thinking back to what was on the Silver Screen in the early 80's it's easy to see what a masterpiece the first Tron was and how original the storyline truly was. This film, is not nearly as original sadly. However, it does have a couple of redeeming qualities, none the least of which is the banging soundtrack by Daft Punk. It is SUBLIME how good it is. The visuals are quite fantastic as well... they give a quality to the grid that 1980's Tron would be jealous of. While the original had more heart, this has more beauty. Where the original had more soul, this has more flash and pizzaz, if you will. The only redeeming quality of the film is at the end where something major happens to the protagonist. Other than that, it's a standard quest driven story, go here, to get this, to go there and get that. As a person who has lost someone close to me, this film resonated with me. If that isn't you, it probably won't for the same reason. That's why I gave it as high as I did. If I hadn't had to deal with that loss, this movie would have got a 7 stars. Yet, the way it handled that part of the story was quite good, and gave closure to a decent sequel to the first Tron, in my opinion.Just let this sink in... my review is of a movie that is now over 7 years old, and yet the music still feels as fresh as it did then. If nothing else, watch this movie for the MUSIC!

This Tron movie was slightly better than the one that came out in 1982. I like how more to advance this movie was compared to the other one with better effects, a long story and the cycles and suits were more awesome.We even had Jeff and Bruce return from the previous movie.What didn't make sense was how did Tron become Rinzler. We did hear a little bit of it in the movie and a level in KH3D. But it could have been more helpful if we could have had a flashback on Rinzler's origin as well as CLU's.But overall it was a good movie and more advanced than the other one.

I was brought up Tron as I am an 80's kid, I remember being a gamer entering Tron's world (even though I struggled to understand what was going on) left me amazed with the effects.Now the sequel I was not interested in the slightest, I'd heard of it and did not pay any attention.But then I saw it on Sky movies and boy did my opinion change, they really have thought about the old film and there is so many references to it you can't help but feel humbled they thought of so much. So there's a scene where the protagonist enters the arcade from the original film, power comes on and all the old machines come to life.They even try to incorporate actual programming into the film, people using Linux commands and not having those Hollywood made up operating systems and menus.Then there's the actual plot which builds and builds and is very well told, sure there are some predictable twists and also things we've time and time before BUT I didn't roll my eyes at any point. I won't give anything away other than Jeff Bridges is listed in the film so that's not a spoiler and he plays a great part which is refreshing to see.I would say if you like a good action film with a decent plot and amazing CGI that compliments the film rather than hinders. Please watch and just relax and enjoy the ride dude!
