A computer hacker is abducted into the digital world and forced to participate in gladiatorial games where his only chance of escape is with the help of a heroic security program.
Kevin Flynn is a former employee of the software corporation ENCOM, now running an arcade. Flynn has been trying to hack into ENCOM's mainframe computer to find evidence that ENCOM's senior executive Ed Dillinger stole five video games he created. But Dillinger's supercomputer Master Control Program foils Flynn's efforts and dictates and controls most of the computer systems. One night, Flynn's former girlfriend Lora Baines and her boyfriend, ace computer programmer Alan Bradley helps Flynn break into ENCOM to shut down the MCP with Alan's security program Tron. But MCP uses Lora's matter transmission program and converts Flynn into data and sends him into the computer. Flynn finds himself in a electronic world ruled by the MCP and his evil chief henchman Sark, where computer programs are the alter-egos of their creators and are forced to compete in gladiatorial games. With help from Tron, a heroic and fearless security program and his lover, Yori, Flynn sets out destroy the MCP and help Tron liberate the system from the MCP's control, by destroying the MCP is Flynn's only way of returning to the real world.
OK, Sherman, set the Wayback for ….. What made this film very enjoyable for me were the references they used. That first line above is Flynn sitting in his room talking to Bradley (and maybe Lora). Taken from Mr. Peabody&#39;s Improbable History, a segment of Rocky and Bullwinkle. Now, forward to Bradley&#39;s cube, which was a perfect replica of cube farms that were quickly populating the countryside. And there on Bradley&#39;s wall was the phrase &#39;Gort, Klaatu berata nicto&#39;. Taken from &#39;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#39; which were words that Michael Rennie told Patricia Neal to say to the robot.<br/><br/>Two little sequences, two references to popular culture, just before Trivial Pursuit (I was there at a pivotal moment for that icon)and I have do doubt there were more, that had to endear the movie to computer nerds and geeks everywhere. Not much, but seeing those, I knew somebody &#39;got it&#39;. And to me, that is very important in movie making and relating to the audience (something I slammed in my review of the 2009 movie &#39;Land of the Lost&#39;). I went to work for the old Burroughs Corp. right exactly at that time, 1981, and guess what their mainframe operating system was called? Yep, &#39;MCP&#39;.<br/><br/>The rest was interesting but straight forward storyline, some plot holes, and great graphics that still hold up. And a great sequence of lines &#39;here goes nothing&#39; … you mean &#39;here goes something, here comes nothing&#39;.<br/><br/>The light racer program was one of the first I played on a computer (just after Colossal Cave and StarTrek and that irritating Mouse game). I have always thought that Flynn&#39;s program name was Klu or short for kludge, because that&#39;s what he really was…or did, as his presence kludged the program giving Tron&#39;s user the ability to get in.<br/><br/>Reading some of the reviews here, makes me realize that you had to see it in 1981-2 and understand what was going on at that time, and how much, or actually how little everyone knew, to really appreciate the movie. They didn&#39;t get it entirely right, but they were on the right track.<br/><br/>And anyway, at that time I happened to enjoy Bruce Boxleitner, Jeff Bridges, and Barnard Hughes. Cindy Morgan was nice as was David Warner being evil. See him in this and see him in the George C. Scott &#39;A Christmas Carol&#39; and you&#39;ll have a hard time believing it&#39;s the same person. He was in his &#39;Titanic&#39; persona for this one.<br/><br/>I&#39;m seeing hints that the new movie seems to reference this one, bringing back actors and roles, etc. That gives it a head start for me. The original &#39;Tron&#39; is worth the watch, if only to see the beginnings of cg.
I had a hard time remembering the first time I watched this movie, but its funny how dated this film is. Overall, I loved it. I thought it was well ahead of its time, and a film that will be considered the patron saint of modern special effects and even digital animation. But one thing I noticed about the film was the political overtones. Clearly, Disney was trying to present themselves as a purely democratic entity, making this a film a good example of their beliefs. This entire movie wreaks of communism and its destructive grip on humanity and self expression. TRON (who was well played by Bruce Boxleitner) isn&#39;t just a computer program, he is the embodiment of America, a figure head for freedom. He believes in his fight as just and proper. It seems fitting to make a film about destroying communism considering our cold war with the Soviet Union (which was called the Master Control Program) and our involvement in the Arab countries during the time of this film&#39;s release. Thank God for growing older, because sometimes it&#39;s as entertaining understanding the historical context of film as well as the philosophical side of its composition.
The best visual design in the world doesn't mean a thing unless there's someone around with a rudimentary sense of story. Jeff Bridges, playing the human hero sucked into the machine, has to carry the film's entire burden of charm and appeal; he seems to have freaked out under the strain, turning in some surpassingly weird, alienating work.
