Tron [Special Edition] [2 Discs] [DVD] [1982]

This movie debut back in 1982, so for Disney to transfer this movie on over to the Blu-ray format and restore the film so that it looks even better is amazing. Not many films receive the necessary attention needed to make the images look good in transfer. The end result is you see the poor transfer images hugely magnified by the Blu-ray format. I have to say the movie screenplay was well ahead of it's time, and this movie received less fanfare when it was released than it does today. If you watch the bonus material on how they produced this film you would agree they should receive some form of award (today) for their achievement. As far as the movie plot goes you will either love it or hate. It's not as exiting as a Star Wars movie but it is interesting in it's own way. My review mainly is aimed at the quality of the transfer. How good the movie is is subjective. So to each their own. If you are not a sci-fi fan or are of a newer age of movie viewer you might not like this movie and find the plot long and drawn out, and then there is the price of this Blu-ray, it's not cheap (2014 purchase), it is a Disney release after all. But like I said before they did do a good job on the transfer. I had a Best Buy Rewards coupon so it brought the price down to where it was more affordable. I was not too sure how well the transfer was going to appear so that was my main apprehension in purchasing this movie.

nothing beats the original but I also love the sequel

I grew up in the 80's. It was during the birth of computers and the iconic Apple IIe. This is a fun retro movie that shows how the world viewed the future of technology. Compared to today's special effects, it seems clunky, but gives you a good perspective on how much technology has really changed in the last 30 years. Plus it's a great Sci-Fi kind of story.

I remember watching this movie growing up. Watching it again as an adult and watching the special features, then realizing this was on the cutting edge of computer graphics for the time, just amazes me. I this is always best to watch the original movie before watching any sequel(s) and this is definitely one of those.

Really great movie way ahead of it's time when made. I remember seeing this as a kid on vhs. Fantastic remastering. Zero complaints.

Great nostalgic Disney movie that I had to add to my collection. Brings back memories of how far movies have come with graphics and what the future will look like. Enjoy this step back in memory lane.

Growing up as a child, I remember watching Tron on television. The movie is dated compared to today's technology but was ahead of it's time at time of release. This DVD package includes both the DVD and Blu Ray versions with lots of special features that will satisfy any Tron fan. If you watched Tron Legacy and have not seen Tron, you owe it to yourself to watch how it all started.

Had to add Troy to my collection. Great buy!! Since I had Tron: Legacy I needed to have this and looks great in 4K!!
