TRON: Legacy

Just like the original 1982 release of the groundbreaking cult classic TRON that set the beginning of CGI, Disney's newly released futuristic action adventure TRON: Legacy stands out in cutting-edge, high tech special effects and set designs.

Perfectly blending the real and the unreal, the never before seen on the big screen digital landscape consists of unique live action, photorealistic CG as well as hand drawn animation. The Grid's stunning visuals and arresting dynamic action scenes are amplified by 3D and IMAX®.

In his debut as feature director, Joseph Kosinski uses geometric shapes and minimalist interiors. Innovative use of light leaves every surface illuminated, including the drinks and the self-illuminated body-molded suits by costume designer Michael Wilkinson. In addition, fans will recognize many of the original film's images and props incorporated in the scene showing Flynn's secret lab.

Following the 20 year mysterious disappearance of his leading tech visionary father, Kevin Flynn (Oscar® and Golden Globe® winner Jeff Bridges), the rebellious 27-year-old Sam Flynn (newcomer Garrett Hedlund) finds himself at the epicenter of a digital world ruled by a ruthless villain. With the help of the beautiful and fearless warrior Quorra (Olivia Wilde) he embarks in a life-and-death journey marked by gladiator-like lightcycle vehicular chases, disc battles, weapons, light discs and teleportation.

Bridges performs both parts of the hero and his younger fully digital character, the villain Clu, whose movements and facial expressions Bridges controls by a helmet mounted camera.

Additional good cast includes Bruce Boxleitner as Kevin Flynn's longtime friend and associate, Alan Bradley, James Frain as Clu's main henchman proficient in intelligence gathering, Jarvis, Beau Garrett as the Siren Gem, and Michael Sheen in the role of the dandified club owner, Castor.

The award winning French musical duo Daft Punk's phenomenal score blurs the limit of music and sound design with a unique combination of orchestra, electronic and granular sounds intricately tied to the visuals.

Engaging action and arresting visuals immerse the viewers in this original and fascinating cyber world.
