Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A dazzling movie from Walt Disney in which computers have been used to make themselves romantic and glamorous. Here's a technological sound-and-light show that is sensational and brainy, stylish, and fun.

rotten:
Tron never reaches a level of excitement commensurate with its effects budget.

rotten:
Tron is loaded with visual delights but falls way short of the mark in story and viewer involvement.

rotten:
It's a simple idea that ought to serve, but Lisberger's failures of pacing, structure, variation, and characterization ultimately make the film seem monotonous and distant.

For most people, TRON's importance is as a historical footnote. It's the Model T of our CGI age. But the film's fans are passionate ones.
