Are You Going To Enjoy Tron Legacy Movie ? It's A Slow, Boring And Incomplete Neon Meaninglessness
Where to begin? Tron Legacy is an optical feast for your eyes and an auditory delight thanks to Daft Punk and Joseph Trapanese. The soundtrack feels nearly ethereal and suits perfectly with this new world we have been introduced to for the 1st time. What the movie makes up for in outstanding vision, it lacks in storyline. Maybe I should have watched the 1982 version as so many folks have commented to me but even without it, the plot appears a little disjointed. The unspoken connexions to the real world are several such as The Holocaust, God complexes, evil doppelgangers and much more. You are left with more doubts than answers as it is never disclosed just what it is about this world that would change every thing in the real world. Saw it in 3D which was a mixed good thing, as the film is so darkly lit that the tint in the glasses made a few scenes truly opaque and hard to catch. Far from being a Computer-Generated Imagery impressive, Tron is tiring in every element : the colors, the script, the tone, emotional content. The fact that several characters are variants of Jeff Bridges is ironic, and stands for the full one-note motion picture. It hits its strident pace almost 3 mins in and sticks with it throughout. Everybody shouts everything and none of it means anything. The story is utter tosh which ticks staid little plot-boxes and moves on quickly before it can be analysed for any evidence of innovative content. There is none; it's depressingly old hat. Like the 1st film, you get the belief the solely aim of making Tron Legacy was to display the bike-racing but with meliorated CGI. And, like the 1st movie, the dullness and confusion of those scenes in cannot be overstated. Jeff Bridges tweets in his habitual old hippie routine - the Big Lebowski meets Robocop. He has bare feet! How very Zen! Everyone else in the movie is too cardboard to review. There's no tension, no sense of threat, and the homogenous uniforms make telling the goodies from the baddies a distinction not worth annoying with. Even the big Tron 'reveal' is a joke of Stig-like proportionalities, as he never takes his helmet off, so who the hell knows WHO he is? I would pick the plot apart, but fear I could spend more effort than the makers did in putting it together - which is not saying much. Halfway through this film I left my good friends and went to get an ice cream, just for something to do. I find it hard to believe any person could write a spoiler for this movie more damaging than the screenwriters already have.
