Subtlety? What's that then?
Dillinger creates a monster, but perhaps the monster is more than the creator? Ares is that Frankenstein's monster, and when ordered to kill Dillinger's competitor, he decides that after having stalked her, she is the one who must live. And so we get real people in the digital world, and digital people in the real world (physics? what's that then?). And for creatures that can only survive 29 minutes in the real world, damn that is a long ass 29 minutes for us to suffer through.
Did this need to be a Tron movie? Did this need to be any movie? It does inherit some backstory and world setting it can otherwise skip over, but it also skips over how one goes about creating digital things in the real world, so whatever. And hey, I've seen Virtuosity!
There are some worthy people in here, but everyone gets overshadowed by Jared Leto, for whom this feels like a vanity project. And the CGI is... fine. But it all makes me wonder how it is supposed to work in the real world.
Well, now we wait for the inevitable sequel.
At least the sound track was great!
