So here goes,
Acting – Thumb Up: I like Jeff Bridges in most everything and Bruce Boxleitner is not too shabby. The rest of the cast is also pretty good.
Writing – Thumb Middle: Aside from a pretty preposterous premise, the writing is good. In today’s world some of the terms seem silly, but taken in its time it is great. My criteria for writing is not too high, and the writing does not detract from the story. There is one notable exception, “Shall we dance?”.
Cinematography – Thumb Up: I liked the zooms, and use of contrast to add to the effects. Again, does not distract from the story.
Special Effects – Thumb Up: I like that they are not over the top. The lightcycles are still pretty cool, as are the disks.
Overall – Thumb Up: Definitely worth a rental. Get the new DVD with all the extras if you like documentary stuff. For more information see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tron_(film). Below is a treasure to pique your memories.

John...I am constantly amazed at what an interesting person you are. I love it. You and your sibs and your cousin, Pete give me no end of pleasure with your fun writing styles, your eclectic interests and your delicious senses of humor. I think Tron was truly a very amazing film for its time....the use of humans and human emotion to get into the "heads" of computers and video games was really pretty darn creative! You kids just ate the film up!
I love you....MOM
thanks John.
If you can get Nicole to say "retard" get it on video or audio and send it to me. That would be funny.
