Torrin-McFinn77 It wasn't until last decade I watched this film. But it was very good and it was by Disney. Some good actors (including David Warner and Jeff Bridges) and a believable virtual world. In fact, I like this a lot better than 1999's The Matrix. If you haven't seen it, and want a family-friendly cyberpunk film, give this a go. It's not as violent as The Matrix and it's also not as disturbing. Just a game world with lots of flashy lights and the first use of computer animation, way before there was Shrek and Toy Story. Now that I think about it, I like this the most of all those CGI-animated films. So what are you waiting for?
DCfan This movie was never really in my era when it was out but this was pretty good considering the time it was made. There was of good acting from Bruce as Tron and David Warner was also very good as Sark and the voice of the MCP.This movie also did include lots of different puzzles that were good for my brain and the characters in the film to solve.The only problem with the movie is that it is too short and the effects weren't that advanced at the time when it was made considering it was made 17 years before I was born. Which I know can't be helped because of the technology at the time.
krycek19 I have no idea how this is considered a classic. Even in 1982 the effects were very, very bad. The acting is pretty bad as well, the music is annoying and the movie in general is boring.The only two good things are that this is a short movie and it spawned an amazing sequel. The only ones who would have liked this were programmers back then.This movie has so little plot that, watching the much better sequel can be done easily.And the sequel is the only good thing that came out of this crap.Avoid the original.
callanvass (Credit IMDb) A computer hacker is abducted into the digital world and forced to participate in gladiatorial games where his only chance of escape is with the help of a heroic security program.Tron is a cool movie that knows how to entertain you. I wouldn't call it a favorite of mine, but I definitely enjoyed it. The effects are slightly dated, but they hold up well for the most part, and it's quite imaginative. Jeff Bridges is terrific in it as well. I haven't seen it in a while, but I do remember that I enjoyed it. Take that for what it's worth. 7.5/10
