Maybe I should have watched the 1982 version as so many people have pointed out to me but even without it, the plot seems a little disjointed.

What the movie makes up for in spectacular imagery, it lacks in storyline. Yes, maybe it is a more lucrative avenue for the movie industry after the setback of heavy piracy but enough is enough! Joseph Kosinski, however, had a vision (and an architectural degree behind him) to give us a mouth-opening, simply beautiful world with the correct blend of 2D and 3D! It is quite simply worth it just to go for the visuals. 3D, for me, is a recent scourge that has been infecting and affecting the movie industry. The soundtrack feels ethereal almost and fits perfectly with this new world we have been introduced to for the first time (or the 2nd time if you've seen the 1982 original). Where to begin? Tron: Legacy is a visual feast for your eyes and an auditory pleasure thanks to Daft Punk and Joseph Trapanese. Thus ensues the inevitable investigation into his father's whereabouts and Sam's transportation into the world his father has created and been trapped in for decades. Alan Bradley (Boxleitner) meets him one night with the news that he has received a page from Kevin Flynn's arcade - a number that has been disconnected for 20 years. Though Sam is the heir, he refuses to play an active role in the decision-making process.

Fast-forward 20 years, Sam Flynn (Hedlund) is a rebellious 27 year old and a thorn in the side of Richard Mackey (Nordling), a suit trying to take over his father's company with the help of a software designer (an uncredited cameo from Cillian Murphy). One night he simply vanishes without a trace and leaves his company in chaos and his young son. Kevin Flynn (Bridges) is the CEO of Encom and the world's best video game developer.
