Where to Watch Tron: Ares
- I think this franchise has some kind of curse- either that or I’m not seeing the same movies the critics are seeing. Tron: Ares is amazing. The music was sick. Not quite Legacy level awesome but pretty darn good. I about started levitating in the opening scene. Although yes, this movie could’ve had more inside the Grid, it was still such a cool looking film. Literally some of the coolest cinematography I’ve ever seen. Just the pure aura was insane. And as for Jared Leto, the reason so many people hate this, I think this was the right movie for him. People say he’s bland and emotionless as an actor? Well, now he plays an AI. So it actually works. Say what you will about his performance in other movies, but his style of acting works better in this setting. And besides, he’s the whole reason we have this sequel. Did y’all want another Tron or not?? I don’t know what people DON’T see in this franchise. For the third time in a row, a good movie was poorly received and the franchise was near terminated. Even some of the few critics that actually liked Legacy are hating on this. I’m pretty sure we won’t get the sequels this movie desperately deserves, maybe they’ll manage to squeeze one more try with new characters in another 20 years.
- Better than I thought it was going to be. I say it's going to warrant a second veiwing in the future. While maybe not the greatest movie, it is a worthy addition to the franchise. Also CGI has gotten so much better that there isn't any of the uncanny valley effect we saw in the second movie. Personally I thought Jared Leto peaked in "Requiem For A Dream", and I read a lot of criticism of his acting in this film. But he wasn't that bad. A little dry at times, but hey, he's basically a terminator program isn't he? Give it a go! It keeps you interested for the entire length of the film.
- Tron movies have always pushed the envelope on visual effects, and Ares is no exception. I watched this in IMAX 3D in an early screening, and it was stunning. However, the story is so laughably contrived that it made Legacy feel like a masterpiece. Ares continually undermines its own stakes every 10 minutes. The dialogue could get unbearably cheesy in even the simplest of conversations. The film felt like it was edited by a teen who would snort cocaine off their phone constantly playing tik-tok videos. No amount of special effects could redeem the massacre that occurred in the writers' room. Look, I know it's unbearably asenine to complain about the quality of Ares' writing when you take the previous two films into account; Tron never was praised for its story. But at least Legacy was trying to respect the source material. Ares retconned Legacy in some significant ways and relied heavily on fan-service to a degree that was offensively blatant. It's not a Tron movie, it doesn't belong in that universe. (The original writer only played a minor advisory role on Ares, similar to Lucas on post-Disney acquisition Star Wars.)
