    Overall, if you enjoyed the first movie from long ago, go see this. If you didn't, it's probably still worth checking out. I thought it was pretty cool. Some of the elitist movie reviewers whose online reviews of the movie weren't very kind, came off, to me, like they never even watched this movie. I wouldn't take what some of them are saying as gospel.
    Saw it yesterday. I dug it. Visuals are insane. The technology they used to do a young Tron and young Flynn was pretty impressive. The light cycles were awesome. And Olivia Wilde is beyond hot.

      Re: TRON: Legacy

      I never played Tron growing up, never saw the original, but went to see this in IMAX 3D today. I wasn't expecting too much from the movie but it was worth seeing if you get it in IMAX. There were some scenes that were totally sick. I don't consider this movie really in my genre either, so if you're big on Sci Fi or the original, you'll love this.

        The story made absolutely no sense and the dialogue was terrible but I'll go see it again because it's one of the best looking movies I've ever seen and the music is amazing.

        If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

          I'm going to see it today on IMAX, and that's pretty much all I'm expecting, is great visuals. Gooood to know.

            Just got back. Thought the story was fine, and the acting/dialogue was ok. Nothing great, but I wasn't cringing or anything. Visually amazing movie, and holy crap I loved the soundtrack. Will probably see this one more time on IMAX.

              Went to go see it this morning and I was AMAZED! Being a huge fan of the original, Legacy just carried over how creative the Tron world can be. The visual effects were amazing and the music just went perfectly (and was like if Daft Punk were made for this movie). As someone posted earlier, didn't expect
              Spoiler
              and the plot was easy to follow. The movie was the right amount of time and didn't think it dragged.

              Also, don't know if anyone has read this...http://mediadecoder.blogs.nytimes.co...-for-tron-dvd/

              Basically says Disney doesn't release some of the dvds for several years and cashes in when they do release them but the original Tron costs a pretty penny right now to own lol and they are gonna release both the original and Legacy as a combo pack on dvd and blu ray. I got my copy of Tron like two years ago and cost me around $10. It's crazy how much it is now.

                Saw it last night. The visuals were impressive and the story was pretty good. Definitely a movie worth seeing in the theater.

                I haven't seen the original in 20 years, but luckily my neighbor has it, so I'm going to borrow it from him.

                  I would agree with most reviews here...AMAZING visual effects and PHENOMENAL soundtrack. Can't stop listening to it! Acting and story are average. But that doesn't matter when the visuals and score are as great as they are. I did see it in 3D which I think is a stupid gimmick. After a while, it loses it's effect and you don't even notice it. Plus, I hate wearing the glasses.

                    Like everyone else said, the visuals and score alone make this worth watching. Action scenes were intense. The story is nothing to write home about. There are a few powerful moments of dialogue but that's about it. Kind of dragged on towards the middle of the movie. Ending was a bit anticlimactic. Still, the visuals and score were breathtaking.

                    I saw the 3D version and didn't think it added much at all. The trailers before the movie utilized it much better, then you were kinda left wondering why you spent the extra dough to watch mediocre 3D effects on the movie.

                    EDIT: Also wanted to add that the character Gem is SMOKING HOT. If you agree, don't do an image search of the actress. Major letdown, lol.

                        In ... "Tron: Legacy," is still a world of monochromatic light blue stripes for the friendly, red for the worst, but the programs are partiers hang in dance clubs sipping cocktails with umbrellas nice glass.

                            This release kind of snuck up on us lol I picked up my BluRay copy today and can't wait to watch it either tonight or tomorrow. I'm also hearing the Reconfigured album and it's pretty good.

                              I'm mad that there isn't a commentary on there, I was really looking forward to listening to that.

                                Not to be 'that guy' but I'm really surprised by the number of positive posts regarding this movie. Maybe it's because I didn't get to see it in the cinema/3D but this was easily my most disappointing movie of the last 12 months and overall was a truly terrible movie imo.

                                The soundtrack was amazing and some of the effects were nice but the terrible story and even worse acting made it nearly unwatchable for me....
