In a high tech world that boosts the sound effect, has dazzling lighting effects, and unique costumes, how could you not get sucked in? In this new movie; Tron: Legacy that's exactly what happened to me. There was so much going on, it couldn't all be taken in. When we are taken to Flynn's Grid, the bright lights, explosions, and sounds drown out the human (or inhuman) characters. There was so much happening the plot was also lost somewhere along the way. When, however; the factors of computer editing are taken out, you are left with intricate characters and an interesting plot. The entire movie, I was kept on my toes, curious as to what would happen to Kevin, Sam, and Quorra. The only part that left me confused was the end, nothing happens they simply leave The Grid, and then what?
In general, though, it was an interesting, captivating movie. It is recommended to all.

I really enjoyed the movie, I went to the midnight show and while waiting for it to start, my friends and I watched the original Tron. The movie was very well done, but from the aspect of it being a new movie then it wasn't so well done, but in the aspect that it is the sequel to an awesome movie from the 80s, Tran:Legacy is amazing.

I'm a girl, and I actually enjoyed it. I had to think about it for hours afterward though to figure it out. I think that the characters were well thought-out, but the way they were portrayed and explained throughout the movie was went about incorrectly. I also think it would help to see the original Tron movie.

While it may be action packed and had some impressive special effects, I have to disagree. I found most of the movie confusing, there wasn't much information given about what the grid was. Now I realize this may be a bit of a sexist comment, but I think it's more of a boy movie. I don't think it gave you much insight into the characters' feelings, and overall you simply couldn't relate to them well. I didn't think the ending was very great, it left me confused. I saw it with a friend, who had to see it two more times simply to understand it.
