Tron, a legacy lasting a few moments.

This review on Tron isn't going to be a friendly one. Simply due to the fact that a group of fat chicks a gay guys, all very loud and obnoxious kinda ruined the whole experience for me. I don't have a problem with either its just they were very rude and made it very difficult to concentrate on the movie other than committing a hate crime. Anywho Tron...I looked forward to this movie, everyday it drew closer the more excited I got. I spent days thinking about this movie, and even longer trying to find the original Tron to watch before we went and saw the new one. Alas it fell short for me. The beginning went by so fast, I wanted more back story on why the son wanted to do the things he did to his inheritance. All I saw was a pissed off guy upset because mommy and daddy weren't there. The movie simply starts off with the son wanting to sabotage his fathers company, and a little back story from the first movie. I don' know it just wasn't enough for me I wanted more. The battles, oh the battles. The fight scenes on the vehicles were nothing short of exciting. I gripped the armrest tightly with excitement as each action packed moment went by. But that's all it was was a moment...the battles were few and far between. The rest...well lets just say the in between was less than thrilling. I have never had issues staying up at a midnight showing, but the dialogue was putting me to sleep literally as well as everything in between the fights. But the strange thing was is that I was the only one who felt this way so maybe it was just me and how irritated I was. But during the middle of the movie I did everything I could to stay awake and I managed to do so. The movie did very little for me, the acting was ok, the effects were great but you can not base a movie on visual effects alone. At the end of the movie I was almost kind of relieved I'm sorry to say. But to hear around me the other viewers were insulting the original kind of pissed me off. Just because a movie is dated does not mean it's a bad movie! I give Tron legacy a 2 out of 4. For the fans of the original its worth a watch. Mind you I give it a 2 just for the battles, I could have done much worse. And again maybe it was just me and the time I had at the theater was nothing short of wanting to rip out my fingernails and wanting to shove them into the eyes of the people behind me. But all in all I did enjoy the previews, Pirates of the Caribbean 4 and Transformers 3 could be good.
