I've been a fan of TRON since it came out and I saw it as a kid. When TRON Legacy came out, I was a bit skeptical, but I loved that movie even more. However, TRON Ares is a steaming pile of horseshit wrapped in the most beautiful paper you ever saw. The music is fantastic, the production design is great. Then they wrote a terrible story, completely ignored what happened in Legacy and decided to cast a rapist as the lead character. What a joke, and shitting all over the two previous movies. Do not watch this movie.

**Tron: Ares is a massive letdown that feels like a soulless cash grab** The film tries to establish itself as the first part of a new "trilogy," but it completely ignores the qualities that made the original Tron and to some degree, Legacy, memorable. The story is disjointed, confusing, and alienating, leaving no desire to watch a second, much less third, part of this. Despite the visuals, there's little substance to hold onto. The action scenes feel tedious, there's no emotional depth, and the performances are forgettable at best. It felt like the film's primary goal was to cash in on the Tron name rather than do justice to its legacy. The nostalgic callbacks to the original fall flat. If they had put any real effort into crafting a story or developing a meaningful narrative, this could've been a solid revival. Instead, it's hollow bait to get you to watch the next one and keep paying. They should have made a good film, and if it worked out then make a trilogy.

Technically gorgeous, spiritually empty There is no denying that you can see the budget in the movie, being spent on the fantastic-looking special effects. It is a shame the story is so devoid of actual meaning, tension or characters you can like or relate to that it just becomes a sort of visual noise. I don't think Disney understood what made the first movie a classic (it wasn't a hit when it came out) and made a bunch of blunders when they made the second. They just triple down and compounded the error with this movie. I can't give it a 5 or a 4, because there is technically nothing wrong with the movie, but it is not substantial enough to actually earn move than a 4. It just happens to be gorgeous.

Me and the kids sat down and watched this movie a couple of weeks ago. As somewhat of a fan of the original, having watched the sequel and being a sci-fi, computing and sfx geek I of course had to watch this one. I’ve read some articles claiming it was not that good but I have to disagree. I think it was pretty good. The fact that the professional retards at a certain (very) rotten site claims it to be rotten was of course a sign that it might actually be good. TRON is obviously a movie that is supposed to cater for sci-fi, computer and sfx geeks and in this I would say that it succeeds. The various chase and fight scenes were cool and when Athena brought out the big guns I went “Hell yeah!”. In addition the story is not all that bad. There’s not too much of Hollywood’s usual woke finger pointing and the story works okay to tie the sfx together. There is quite a bit of fan service which I personally like. I do not know why people keep complaining about this? If you have successful franchise then do not stop catering for your fans. Unfortunately plenty of Hollywood morons do not seem to grasp this simple fact. Of course, although this is supposed to science fiction, the science part went out of the window already in the first movie and this one is no different. It is a sfx driven action/adventure movie and, as I wrote, I quite liked it.

Visually stunning and rhythmically charged, TRON: Ares expands its digital world with heart and energy. I loved how it blends legacy style with a fresh pulse for today’s audience. All around great story, entertaining from start to finish. A mesmerizing ride that reminds you why cinema and technology belong together. The VFX work is outstanding — great job to the entire team. I had a great time seeing it!

One of the best IMAX 3D experiences I've ever had. Thanks to Jared Leto, the Tron franchise isn't dead yet even after all these years. Joachim Rønning is an underrated visionary director who's direction is right on the money with the visuals and with the sound design. Talking about the sound, Nine Inch Nails has done a remarkable job at composing music for the movie and might have made the best score for a movie this year. This movie experience is truly worth the ticket price!
