The Original 80s Classic !
5 Stars
The Original 80s Classic !
It was a different world back in 1982. Disney had released "Dragonslayer" the year before but was going for something more original than a cliche fairy tale this time. Spawned from a line-drawn back-lit liquid-neon electronic character nicknamed "Tron" (because it was "electronic"), and originally intended to be developed as an animated film, the storyboards for Tron were rejected by various studios before it would find a home with Walt Disney Productions.Soon after Tron released in theaters (July 9, 1982) its counterpart video game tie-in of the same name showed up in arcades and was awarded "Coin-op game of the year" by Electronic Games magazine. Unfortunately the movie itself received mixed reviews and despite being the highest-grossing live action Disney film in 5 years it was considered a financial disappointment. The Motion Picture Academy would then refuse to nominate Tron for an award in special-effects because they thought that the use of computers was considered cheating. But Tron had further demonstrated the potential of computer graphics in films shortly after the release of "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" (June 4, 1982), and would develop a cult following which eventually led to the 2010 sequel "Tron Legacy".Tron is one of the ultimate 80s movies and a must-have for any fan of science fiction films. This 2-Disc Special Edition has everything necessary to relive the magic with lots of bonus material including an 88 minute documentary "The Making of Tron".

In 1982...we all thought this would be way off in the future, around 2090. Turns out this movie is prophetic. Explotes the basic points of how AI could consume itself due to the consequences of human behavior.

5.0 out of 5 stars TERRIFIC CLASSIC...but Disney is NOT setting those stupid prices
Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2010

First, this is a fantastic classic from the dawn of the computer age as we know it today. The movie came out just after the birth of the IBM PC. Back in those days the concept of distributed computing was unknown outside of the computer room. Main frame and mini-computers lived in air conditioned secured rooms, hosting a bunch of dumb video terminals for the users. Most people had no idea of how they worked and they were usually found only in big companies.

Even today the special effects, though quaint by modern standards, are still impressive and the story line is pretty good. But the visual concepts from back then of what it would be like to actually be inside of a computer is what makes this movie really special and fascinating. To say the movie was conceptually far ahead of it's time is an understatement.

The video quality in this version is great and looks impressive on my 65" screen with the upscaling provided by my Blu Ray player. Color saturation is rich but not overdone and the images are crisp and clean although you can see the black outline around each character from the matting process. The 5.1 sound is also very clear and clean with good surround sound effect. All in all, it's a terrific movie that all sci-fi fans should have in their library.

As for the exorbitant prices being charged for the movie now, bear in mind that it is not Disney that's setting those stupid prices even though they undoubtedly contributed to the situation by not producing any more copies of this movie and/or forcing distributors to return unsold stock. But the prices you see are being set by greedy resellers, for the few copies they have left in stock, who are basing them on the law of supply and demand and hoping they can find enough suckers who want a copy of this movie badly enough to pay them such ridiculous prices. I'm just thankful that I bought my copy from Amazon before these greedy moron resellers jacked up their prices. You'll notice that Amazon is not selling this particular movie; they are just providing access to other resellers who are.

Actually I think Disney is being very short sighted and greedy itself in trying to prevent sales of this movie because they think it will negatively impact their revenue from the new Tron Legacy release. It they were really smart, they would have done a digitally remastered Blu Ray version and promoted that to drum up additional interest in the new movie. That way they would have made even more money off both products. I know I certainly would have bought a remastered Blu Ray version and also gone to see the new movie.

Bottom line, just don't buy this movie until the prices come back down to a reasonable level. I think that after the new movie has been out for a few months, these prices will come back down to a reasonable level, especially if no one buys from these greedy resellers until they bring the prices back to down to reasonable levels.

If you were amongst those who saw Tron: Legacy in theaters or on DVD, you may be curious to see its predecessor that came out 28 years earlier. Hard to find a few months ago, the original Tron was finally released again by Disney back in April to coincide with the DVD release of Legacy. So how does it hold up?

For starters it has a pretty good cast. Leading the cast is Jeff Bridges as computer programmer turned arcade-owing hacker Kevin Flynn whose attempts to prove that his work was stolen by a rival programmer leads to him being sent into the digital world of the movie. Bridges gives Flynn an eccentric yet everyman quality that, while perhaps not serving the character best in the opening part of the movie, works perfectly when the character of Flynn ends up trying to make sense of the digital world he finds himself in. Bruce Boxleitner plays computer programmer Alan Bradley and his creation: the heroic security program named Tron. The two are very different characters and at times it is hard to believe that are being played by the same actor because of the huge differences between them. Aiding them in both the real and digital world are Cindy Morgan (as Lora and Yori) and Barnard Hughes (as Dr. Walter Gibbs and Dumont) who, like Boxleitner, find ways of making each of their characters different from the other. Opposing them, and perhaps giving the best performances in the movie, is David Warner as program stealing executive Ed Dillinger in the real world as being both the digital world menace of Sark and the electronically distorted voice of the the dictatorial Master Control Program. Put all these actors together and the result is that they give this digitally set movie a human grounding.

Which brings us to perhaps the most iconic part of the movie: the digital world the majority of the movie takes place in. Given that the nearly thirty years that have passed since the movie was made have seen a true revolution in special effects, one might expect that the effects (including some of the earliest CGI effects) would look rather passe now. The truth of the matter is in fact quite different: the digital world of Tron is a truly immersive, and highly original, one.

The production design, costumes and effects all go towards creating that unique world. The production design imagines a digital world that is both alien and yet familiar with its take on tanks, ships and perhaps most famously cars in the form of light cycles. Then there are all of the unique costumes of the digital characters with their stark whiteness contrasted by the illuminations of the apparent circuitry on them with a truly unusual look being the result. Last but not least on this list is all of the effects work. The effects would seemingly be the most dated part of the original Tron and to some extent this is true on the surface. But if you scratch below the surface you'll discover that those seemingly dated effects are surprisingly effective. Two perfect examples can be found in the light cycle gaming sequence where there is a point of view shot that gives the viewer a true sensation of speeding along a maze of lines or during the chase sequence that follows directly on from it when the "camera" follows two ships that are pursuing the escaping light cycles. If you are however looking at the effects of the movie cynically from the viewpoint of today's CGI here is another way of looking at them within the logic of the movie: the film is set and uses early 1980s computers and therefore it makes perfect sense that the digital world reflects the technology of the time rather the more advanced and evolved digital world seen in Legacy. Back to the main point though: the result of all these elements put together is that the digital world setting of the film remains both unique and immersive almost thirty years on.

No review of the film though would be complete without a discussion of its script or storyline. The basic plot of Tron are quite simplistic: in the real world Flynn is trying to prove that Dillinger stole his programs to further his own career while in the digital world Flynn and Tron end up on a quest to save to free that world from the tyrannical reign of Dillinger's Master Control Program and its minion Sark. The dialogue too is more often then not as simplistic as the plot and can be at times either corny or cringe-worthy. Yet Tron's script and story are full of fascinating ideas: Programs acting as avatars of their programmers with deletions being their literal death (or derezzing), information and programs being sent along by incredible vehicles with energy or light used as paths, and even religious undertones to the relationship of programs to their users which features throughout the film is various character discussions and is best illustrated in the scene where Tron communicates with his user Alan Bradley. As a result Tron on the script and story level is very much driven by its ideas rather then its own plot.

While it may be lacking in plot, Tron makes up for that in other ways. That includes the cast which makes the most of the duel roles that most of them have. Where it does that mainly though is in the immersive digital world it is set in and the ideas that lie behind it. Tron therefore is perhaps more a triumph of style over substance but it more then makes up for that fact.

Nonostante il tempo passato,questo è uno di quei film che,specialmente se come me visti da bambino,restano nel cuore. Le sue atmosfere,i suoi colori,sono secondo me unici e identificativi. Certo,ora molte tecniche,molte soluzioni narrative e visive risultano anacronistiche per molti;ma come per molte opere,và visto con gli occhi di quando è uscito. Questa edizione,in oltre offre un prodotto con un grande ed apprezzabilissimo lavoro di restauro e ripulitura sia audio che video che valorizzano ancor di più l'opera. Consigliatissimo.
