TRON:LEGACY has been release on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray and DVD formats
Review By John Delia
Excellent computer generated graphics in 3D in the action adventure Tron: Legacy are now available now available for you home entertainment system. I am pleasantly surprised by Blu-ray 3D which provides some great moments on the home screen. Embarrassingly I didn’t really grasp the story as much as I would have liked to at the movie theater being distracted by all he eye popping special effects, but at home it’s a better experience.
This sequel to the original Tron (also now available in Blu-ray) has a lot going for it. The hard pounding video game feeling, fast paced story and exciting action are a treat for those who crave a double dose of excitement.
In this story we find a rebellious Sam Flynn, the son of Kevin (from the original) who has inherited his father’s video gaming business still down about his dad’s disappearance. Sam gets a strange signal that leads him to his father’s first arcade where he discovers the original game his father was working on. When he tries to start the game up, he gets sucked into the cyber universe.
The cool visuals, constant chase scenes and interesting storyline are just part of the entertainment when you watch the film in the Blu-ray 3D format. Crystal clear and in surround sound that comes with most systems, you feel like you are part of all the action. It’s the best way the see this film.
Being able to replay the film gives a huge advantage since there is a lot to enjoy on the home entertainment medium. But, even without the 3D, the Blu-ray disc also provides the experience in full measure.
There are many special bonus features that add hours more to the experience. Here is a list of what awaits you on the formats.
