  • TRON: Legacy

    TRON: Legacy

    ★★★½

    Tron is BEAST.

    Movie kicks ass regardless, and I know they would’ve had to market it this way considering a large portion of the intended audience wouldn’t have been alive when the original was released, but I feel that Legacy’s reputation for being able to be consumed as a stand alone experience has really affected public perception. Certain moments could’ve just felt like lazy writing and certain characters could’ve felt empty rather than meaningful had I not watched the original…

    ★★★

    If you’d shown me this as a child I would’ve thrown a fit after realising it’s not 90% laser bikes.

    Movie still fucks though.

    Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom

    There is actually a lot about this movie that is, or could have been, great. Aspects such as the cinematography, acting and the political commentary are all of substantial quality. However, the film is just so vile to the point where it almost entirely negates any of this quality. The fact that the actors actually performed some of the scenes is questionable, let alone the director telling them to do so. It feels like a crime.

    Any attempt to appreciate…
