[MOVIE] Tron Legacy Review


Most people remember this classic. A disney classic back in 1982. Tron is remaked recently through hollywood means. Looking at only the title, we can think of a few things. Computers, devices, and the future. This movie has quite a few of the elements in it, but still lacks something.
Tron Legacy is actually targeted mainly at Tron fans back then. It was a hit decades ago.
Satisfying CGI needs, TRON is recreated again , now with better graphics.

Now what is TRON anyway? What can you expect when watching this movie?
Expect loads of tech jargons, and more about chips and circuits.
The story is actually about a kid, whom lost his father 15 years ago. His father was a great scientist and therefore created a system to penetrate the computers' system. He called it the grid. The son (Sam) was paged one day which unseemly put him into the grid as well.
He struggles to find his father while facing many different obstacles. Will he and his father find freedom once again? That is what TRON is about.

Up for the review, it didn't hit my expectations. I mean the graphics was oh yeah, but how they tell the story, I think not so good. How they utilize the plot, they should do better. It kind of lost the TRON feel from the 1982 classic, it was quite different but also the same. Its kind of a new concept for those that didn't watch the previous TRON but thats about it. Not to mention the OST in TRON legacy. Awesome choice. If you don't know who are Daft Punk, you're missing something. Daft punk made a difference in this movie. The most memorable parts were the fights and action. However, the story is really dark and you only get to see the sunlight only at one scene. LOL
It might be quite confusing if you didn't catch the original one, but nevertheless with intuition you will understand.

Enter into the Digital undiscovered world to unveil more. TRON.
Overall rating: 7/10
