A fun light show, if you're into that sort of thing.

*** out of **** There are a handful of films that I admire and enjoy for their unique, groundbreaking visual style alone and Steven Lisberger's "Tron" is just one of them. Critically, it is - honest to God - just not a very good film. It's plot is simplistic and fails to match the amount of imagination put into creating the world that it inhabits, the characters aren't very well-developed and therefore come off as disposable, the pacing is sometimes a mixed bag, and it is, … more

'Tron' the Original Elicits More Than a Primitive Arcade

At first I thought the distance between ‘Tron' and ‘Tron Legacy' may have been in style and substance.

Computer camp . . . no not that kind of camp

It isn't cool and if you thought it was cool in 1982, you won't think so now. Plot Details: This opinion reveals everything about the movie''s plot. I typically write reviews off the cuff, then edit. As of right this moment … more

The Master Computer is Taking Over the World!

Pros: All those fancy computer scenes, light bikes Cons: Dated technology. Plot? What's a plot? The Bottom Line: 20 years and still as much fun as it ever was. Somebody tell me: What is it about all those cult movies that were once considered horrible that they get "special" DVD releases for their landmark anniversaries? It's 2002 and Tron hits the big 2-0 this year, so it gets its own big DVD compilation for its birthday. Why … more
