Sam Flynn, 27 ans, est le fils expert en technologie de Kevin Flynn. Cherchant à percer le mystère de la disparition de son père, il se retrouve aspiré dans ce même monde de programmes redoutables et de jeux mortels où vit son père depuis 25 ans. Avec la fidèle confidente de Kevin, père et fils s'engagent dans un voyage où la mort guette, à travers un cyber univers époustouflant visuellement, devenu plus avancé technologiquement et plus dangereux que jamais...

Pouvez-vous imaginer ce chef-d'œuvre de conception et de technologie, s'il répondait à certains critères que nous exigeons automatiquement des films ? Imaginez un film avec une histoire dense et profonde, qui rivaliserait avec Tron en termes d'imagination, d'originalité du design et de vision futuriste. Remarquez les détails (les tableaux de bord des vaisseaux volants, le design des motos, les courbes lumineuses des costumes ou la désintégration/pixelisation des "figures" touchées par le disque), l'intégration de ces détails dans la fluidité des mouvements, des vols et des combats, et la synchronisation de cette danse visuelle élégante avec une majestueuse musique électronique ("Daft Punk aimerait remercier Hans Zimmer, John Powell et Harry Gregson-Williams" ;-). Ignorez simplement les phrases du genre "Tu te fous de moi" et laissez vous emporter par la réponse "Tenez bon !" à la question "Comment t'appelles tu?". Que Tron : L'héritage soit une idiotie ou non, c'est un événement cinématographique, un film unique en son genre et il sera imité. JEREMIE

Visually amazing, no doubt, I recommend going to the cinema just for that. The soundtrack by Daft Punk is the other great thing. All the rest – the script, the performances – is rather average, and Garret Hedlund is awfully miscast as the protagonist, that guy doesn’t have a pinch of charisma. I don’t mind that the story is simple (you can see some attempts at depth, but they end up harming the film because they don’t work at all), but the way it is put together; there isn’t any gradual reveal of the reality of that cyberspace, like, for instance, it was very well done in Pandora last year. When Sam falls into the light, he doesn’t look particularly surprised, or even tries to find any answers, as a result, you never get to know the limits of that world, which makes it hard to root for the characters, because you get the feeling that if anything goes pear-shaped, the old creator Bridges will only have to push a button to make everything all right again. That sounds a bit too critical for a four-star rating, right? Just to be clear, TRON: Legacy is not a bad film, far from it. The reason I’m being critical is that this film only needs a few tweaks in the script to be a great gem comparable with Matrix. Fortunately, the lukewarm reception by the dear critics lowered my expectations significantly, so in the end I’m satisfied; I’d much rather watch another Tron sequel (and even with Kosinski behind the camera) than most of the upcoming comic-book adaptations (Green Hornet, Green Lantern, Thor, etc.). 80 %

Kosinski will (probably) remain a one-film filmmaker. Whoever watches his commercials on YouTube and then Tron Legacy will understand that this director is a design genius with a unique sense of visuals, which is perfectly emphasized by Daft Punk's music, but he is also an absolutely bland storyteller. The attempts to create something epic are very funny, whereas the rest of it is kind of dysfunctional. And yet, unless you might want a serious cinematic adventure, it doesn't let up because the primitive plot actually doesn't hurt the film at all. Regardless, there are two ways in which the film can be seen. Either just "watch" it (perhaps in HD over time), or "experience" it in 3D (and I say that whilst having quite an aversion to this technology as a cheap decoy from clueless filmmakers).

At times the words about the triumph of film design come to mind, but the boredom reliably overwhelms everything. I, as a viewer, have long since sobered up from the 3D fascination and the new Tron has nothing new to offer. Neither story-wise nor narratively; adjectives like "riveting" or at least "interesting" have no place in Kosinski's world. I enjoyed the old Tron infinitely more, even with its simple 8-bit graphics.

The bearded Jeff can be nice. Computer Jeff is Guignol (almost like the Nordic model from the luxury perfume commercial in the lead role). To his detriment, Tron has a lot more Guignol in it than bearded men. As a visual story full of reflections and light contrasts, it is watchable, but unfortunately, in terms of the technical design there is only a pile of boring copies of real masters of imagination. Tron doesn't have one of his own, just the one on loan. And also not very luxuriant. But in this year's competition "pass", not "fail". P.S. Compared to the original film a fail in all categories, except the technical ones, of course.
