This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
Let's be realistic.
Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible
Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
View MoreThis is one film (literally one film) I can watch over and over again. When a film becomes an 'expwrience' And you walk away in shock and awe and 'that' feeling you remember it for being special... I saw it in 3D at the cinema and even though I was disappointed by the 3D I still loved it! The 3D day detracted from the effects to an extent, the fast scenes became Blurred etc. But everything else was just amazing. The music made it, the bass the actors, the pace, the 'feel' just blew me away and it sits in my top ten films of all time.... even though I pop pooed the 3D there were times where I look back with fondness such as the opening credits 3D Disney castle in lasers, love it!! :)

View MoreSo, 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!
View MoreI'm going to begin this review like every other review I've written in this year and past that (b/c I'm quite lazy): Tron Legacy is an... interesting film.I'm not some kiddie that grew up with the original Tron, so I rented and watched it prior to seeing this in theaters back in 2010. While age has not been all too polite to the original Tron, there's always the new movie... right? Eh, maybe.I am a sucker for just about anything as long as it's got good visuals, an intriguing story, and great characters to back it... and I hate to say it, by TL only got PART of that right. It's CG work is excellent, and the action scenes are really well shot. On top of this, the acting (while not top-notch) is decent in most regards. To top this cake off, the soundtrack... is awesome. I don't usually care about soundtracks in movies, but this one stood out to me quite a bit more than that of many movie soundtracks that reuse the same songs you've already heard on the radio about a bazillion times.While all that is nice and kind... I believe there's something MISSING from that previous paragraph that I said would make me a sucker for just about anything... oh, yeah, I remember now! The compelling story and intriguing cast of characters! The story itself isn't awful by any means, and starts out quite well... but as the movie goes on, I found it less and less compelling than it SHOULD be. The characters aren't that well written, either. I never felt I really cared for any of the characters and the things they do because they all felt flat to me, missing any type of PROPER motivations and/or characterizations.All in all, I think about the best way to describe Tron: Legacy is this: A cardboard-cutout in a store that looks and sounds more amazing than many other cardboard-cutouts... but that's all it is: a cardboard-cutout. It looks and sounds amazing, but it's nothing really more than that.
