Jeff Bridges Film
Fest Movie #10
Synopsis: It’s
kinda like The Matrix.... if it were
designed by Intellivision, circa 1982.
Blurb From the VHS
Jacket: “A masterpiece of breakthrough CGI ingenuity – Disney celebrates
the 20th anniversary of TRON – a dazzling film at the flashpoint of
a continuing revolution in its genre.”
What Did I Learn?: 1) If you’ve seen one consumer electronics
show, you’ve seen them all. “”Embezzling” is such an ugly word.

Movie If: You'll watch anything that features Bruce Boxleitner.
Really?: 1)
Wow...Flynn (Bridges) is blue...now he’s red...now he’s blue again. Does any of
this have any meaning? 2) So, as a “user”, Flynn has magical powers...why is
that? Does anyone have an explanation? 3) So wait – when Flynn is sent into the
computer-world, does he remain himself, or does he suddenly become CLU, who was
defeated by Master Control earlier on? Come to think of it, why do all of the
programs have human faces?
Rating: Tron is one of those movies I saw years
ago in childhood, and hadn’t screened again until recently. Does it stand the
test of time? Well... it’s obviously a movie for kids; the plot is rather
convoluted, and a number of things don’t make a lot of sense, but Tron is also
highly imaginative, and its special effects are dated-but-still quite
impressive. Check it out of you’re curious. End of line. 7/10 stars.
