Reviews
Tron Legacy
OK, my DSL connection couldn't do justice to the continuity- however, despite the updated flashy graphics and the *threatening* soundtrack here, right away I can distinguish this as a glitzy retread. Honestly, must the female lead really be an obvious clone of Kate Moss?? From the rest of the preview, I would guess that there would be little to distinguish this epic from- what? "Matrix", itself a spin-off from the original "Tron" (which I own on tape and still play-back on my CRT TV, thankew)
"Tron" was a standout for its time, original and engaging, tho the Disney watermark was clear. (How did it ever get past committee for release?) I understand that sequels seldom outdo the original in flicks, but it seems to me at least, that as long as you have the budget and cast, that you could make a greater effort to produce a great flick that stands out on its own merit.
*Don't* do the easy thing, please??
