Rating: 1.5/5
Tron released in 1982, took 6 years in its making and it was tentatively more intellectual, spectacular and convincing than the sequel which hits cinemas this weekend in 3d.
To figure out storyline of Tron Legacy, you would either need help of some geek who might have watched its first installment with infinite curiosity or Google, and that’s for sure. Storyline is too complicated for a normal movie goer to comprehend. Still, let’s peep into the plot of the movie which is wonderfully-executed but foolishly-written.
Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund) steps into the virtual world with the help of clue given by his dad’s loyal man, Alan Bradley (Bruce Boxleitner). The virtual world was dexterously imagined and constructed for betterment of the world by protagonist’s father Kevin (Jeff Bridges) who is astonishingly caged inside it since 20 years. Tron and Clu are the programs which were created for the assistance. Tron gets murdered and Clu becomes the opponent of Flynn who mysteriously invites Sam into the virtual world. Sam enters that virtual world with an aim to pull his dad out from that world.
Gaming arenas have never ever been so boring and mind numbing as it is in this movie. Now, Gladiatorial gaming scenes are shot in a visually stunning style but they are lengthy, so tiresome and predictability is the thing which hinders this movie the most. Nail biting thrill never ever takes place and every fight sequences seems to be the cake walk for our leads. “Quorra” (Olivia Wilde) is the worst written character of the movie and the charm or chemistry which one expects between the leads is purely missing.
Budget of this movie is $ 200 million. Yes, such is the huge investment. Design of the movie is wholly awesome especially “Light cycle”. That’s the most noticeable spectacle of the movie. 3d effects were impressive but as a whole this movie fails to entertain because of its almost indescribable-perplexing descriptive plot.
Basic aspects of film making has not been given due importance & that’s how this film shatters. Acting by none of the actors is convincing. Absence of sharp dialogues and tight screenplay makes the scenario nastiest. Warmth which we expect from Walt Disney’s movie is also deficient.
At the end, it’s nothing but Walt Disney’s Hi-tech trash. Watch it if during movies, you like lots of question marks blinking in your brain.
