There's an undeniable appeal at its core - in its sincere approach to ridiculous concepts, in its resistance toward quipping at its own expense. Go to Full Review

Tron: Legacy is a fun popcorn flick if you had the opportunity to catch it on the big screen, but with the digital effects downsized on a DVD format what's good about the movie doesn't emit as much of an effect. Go to Full Review

Disney may be looking for a merchandising bonanza with this long-gestating sequel to the groundbreaking 1982 film, but someone in the corporate offices forgot to add any human interest to its action-heavy script. Go to Full Review

“Tron: Legacy” isn’t perfect, but it’s the perfect “legacy sequel” (ha); understandable for new viewers and exciting for fans of the original. [Full review in Spanish]. Go to Full Review

“Tron: Legacy” proves that with so many examples of oppression in fiction and reality, this movie had to come from a special place to be thinner in its spin on an evil leader and his forces than the last season of “Game of Thrones.” Go to Full Review

01/09/2023 visually beautiful, but boring. See more mike b @mikerbanks1973 7h Awful CGI for Jeff bridges clu character. Just couldn’t get past that. Weakest of the series in my opinion See more Cris C @22elements 9h The Best! one of the most entertaining movies ever, the soundtrack alone is worth watching it for. The plot was great, the acting was great and the graphics were great. See more Noah H 20h One of the BEST science-fiction movie sequels of all time. PERIOD. The original Tron movie may have had its 80s charm but Legacy kicks EVERYTHING up a notch. The Grid gets a massive CGI upgrade, Kevin Flynn is a father now with an interesting son, Sam Flynn, and the electronic score by Daft Punk elevates EVERY scene to the point where you feel like you are THERE with Sam Flynn on his journey in the real world and in the Grid. The light cycle and disk fights are so ADRENALINE-PUMPING. And, on top of that, Quorra, Kevin Flynn's adopted "daughter" is SOOO BEAUTIFULLLL! *sigh*. The only thing I'll admit is yes, the CGI Kevin Flynn face may not have aged the greatest but that's kind of expected since this movie is 16 years old now. Tron: Legacy is an absolute BLAST. I'm sure you'll have a good time with it. See more SELECT @SetecAstronomy 1d Despite the CG which hasn’t aged well, this is one of my favorites. What an amazing sci fi fantasy story with a great soundtrack and stylish visuals. See more Illyana R @Haloguy 3d Tron legacy was absolutely amazing music and visual wise. While the story may not make sense for many. Its an amazing movie to watch for fun. Sam Flynn was an awesome character and clu as a villain was alright as well. It's ending was great as well but a massive cliffhanger. See more Read all reviews
