Tron Legacy

The long waited sequal to the all time cult classic Tron.

Nineteen eighty-two was a good year for science-fiction movies. There was ET. There was Blade Runner. And, according to Disney, which nearly three decades later has commissioned the first of what is likely to be a number of sequels, there was also Tron.

Tron? That underwritten and cheesily performed film in which Jeff Bridges played a video-game programmer who gets sucked into one of his games?

Tron was zeitgeist-chasing cheese, an attempt by Hollywood to cash in on the popularity of video arcades. It did only so-so at the box office, and, even though its computer-generated effects seemed startling at the time of its release, they quickly came to be seen as primitive.
