Tron Legacy DVD review

Having only recently seen the original Tron and loving it, I've been looking forward to watching Tron Legacy for a while. While conceptually and visually the sequel doesn't really stack up to the original, it's still a decent sci-fi action adventure that continues the story well, making a good addition to the DVD collection.

Jeff Bridges, who seems to be the male version of "in everything" Natalie Portman at the moment, is back in the role of Kevin Flynn. Disappearing not long after the neon climax of the original, he left his son Sam to fend for himself. When a page comes through to Alan from Flynn's arcade Sam goes to investigate, sending him onto the computerised grid that took his father.

It's great to see Bruce Boxleitner back in the role of Alan, Flynn's programmer buddy from the original and writer of the security programme Tron. Although, sadly Cindy Morgan isn't back as Yori or Dr. Laura Baines.

Olivia Wilde is pretty cool as Quorra with a great combination of innocence and strength in her role, and the introduction of CLU, a computerised pseudo version of Flynn, makes a convincing bad guy in the absence of the Master Control Programme.

The Tron Legacy DVD comes with a preview of Disney's new XD animated series, Tron: Uprising, along with a short video on the visualisation of Tron and info on the installation of the cast.

With Daft Punk's Tron Legacy soundtrack scores playing in the background of all the sci-fi action, the DVD probably won't be one of those that gets played once and filed to the dusts of infinity.

Tron Legacy DVD review: 3.8/5
