    Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

    So, both Tron movies to me were like being hungry and getting to smell your favorite food but not eat it. They had good ideas, obviously great graphics, actors, music - but ultimately the story and characters just fizzled and did nothing really.Now along came this cartoon, I will say the writing in this is far superior to the films, problem is tho, this show really should have been a movie, or maybe a few 1hr episodes. Many are complaining it was cancelled but I'm not one of them, the episodes were getting repetitive and suffering the fate of most shows.How many times are the bad guys going to bounce back and forth "I've got a plan" "You failed, now listen to me boss, I've got a plan" "The Renegade won't escape - oh, whoops, he did, but uh, he won't next time....but he does".The villains lost their menace about 6 episodes in and just became a joke. Not to mention the "secret identity" was starting to run in to the inevitable corn ball situations ("Why is so n so never around when the hero is here?"). Finally - the good guys won't de-res anyone? How are you going to win a revolution without killing any of your enemies? Sorry to say, but if this continued on it would have really been run into the ground.

    I know that the first two TRON movies have their fans. The first movie touched on some intriguing subjects and ideas, but it was still very bland and boring despite visiting an entirely new idea for the sci- fi genre. I cam find a certain amount of enjoyment in it due to its more intelligent nature despite its usual Disney campyness and forced "maturity" at times. Its sequel, however, showed just how boring a movie can be when it focuses purely on action and pays almost no heed to story. There's explosions . . . explosions . . . unlikable characters who try to sound like we should like them . . . and more explosions--the usual Disney action movie formula (at least there's a more clear-cut difference between good and evil). It took me a few times watching these movies to realize their problems, especially with "Legacy", because for a while I too had just jumped on the "impressive visual effects train" that makes one forget how bad a movie really is until we take a step back and analyze how the story and characters measure up to high standards of quality and just real life in general. Three years later, I was browsing on Netflix for a good sci-fi series and found this. I was a little put off by the maturity rating, but seeing as I had seen some impressively good "children's shows" in the past, I decided to give it a try. And it was amazing. First of, this series really should be rated TV-PG. It doesn't matter that it aired on Disney XD or that the programs die by breaking up into little bits of code so there's no blood. These are the representations of PEOPLE merely in the form of compressed energy. It doesn't need to be called a kid's show just because it's animated. In fact, being in the genre of animation fits the TRON series perfectly, not adhering the the rigid designs of reality. There's a lot of room for creativity and flourish in the character designs. With that point aside, this series embodies everything that the first TRON movies should have been; there's steady, well-done character development, surprising plot twists, and many diverse characters that you can't help but love even when they're the bad guys. Take Pavel, for instance. He's sadistic, selfish, and all- around insane when he gets into his "homicidal maniac" mode. But then there are smaller, quieter scenes where he's just planning for his schemes in the future--which can be extremely chilling when you see snippets of what he's done--or when the writers just decided to poke fun at his unstable quirks. Every character absolutely bursts with energy, from Pavel to Beck's hilariously introverted friend Zed who tends to get into more trouble than he really should. There are a few instances where the writers slipped and make it a little obvious that this is a kid's show--a couple of plot holes here and there or an awkward line or delivery, but those barely hampered my enjoyment of this complex, 3-dimensional series that anyone can enjoy. Sadly, at the moment you can only watch "Uprising" on Amazon Prime, but if you have the streaming service I highly recommend buying it. Show Disney what they've let go of and give it at least four stars and a good review for a job well done. Who knows, maybe the fans can help bring it back one day?

    Unlike other shows, Tron Uprising shows potential to do more with animation, effects, and voice casting for the series. Hopefully, this first season is not the last as they showed insight for an audience of adolescence to adult. However, Disney did little to advertise for this show and that may be a reason why popularity seems to not be as much as they hoped for. Yet, in all honesty it is one of the best shows I've seen that is simple and mature that goes off "the grid" in choreographed scenes and plots. In addition, the animators and animation was what made the series unique and special. With more word getting out about this series through the internet and hopefully advertising... the popularity and interest in this will grow.

    Trying to use the same premise in the original Tron just doesn't work. When the first Tron movie was released, the general population were not as familiar with computers as they are today, so I watched the movie pretending to believe the "master program", etc.Now, we all know "programs" do not look like people; they don't think; they don't fight, they don't have emotions. Programs do whatever the programmers made them do; no more and no less.I tried to watch the movie. But after ten minutes, I just couldn't make believe programs are people anymore. If the movie find another way to call these people other than "programs" it may be more acceptable.If you are not familiar with computers, this movie may work better for you. For me, every time they call each other a "program", I cringe.Needless to say, I didn't finish watching this movie.
