I didn't think she was all that great, actually. She's ok.

I've only seen her in one film so I personally can't really make a well informed opinion on her acting ability.

I was referring to her appearance. Her acting was adequate, I wouldn't mind if she reprised the role later.

Tron is out today, guess we'll be watching tonight. I figure maybe I'll like it better the 2nd time now that my expectations aren't sky high. Should get more out of it.
Maybe they fixed that obnoxious constantly smirking Flynn CGI guy for the disc? (yeah, right)

LOL! Don't forget that the CLU version of Flynn did that annoying smirk too!

Overall, I liked the movie. I wasn't expecting some earth-shattering sci-fi classic like 2001 or Blade Runner so I guess that helped. smile

I noticed that Cillian Murphy had an uncredited cameo in the film. The guy was very familiar but i couldnt quite place him. smile (lead programmer in meeting)

Gem and Quorra are so very pleasant to look at in this film.

I had no idea who Olivia Wilde (Quorra) was at the time I watched the movie but she is definitely one fine babe. Later on I found out she has a role on the tv show "House".

I like this more on the small screen, even without the 3D, and now that my expectations are not too high.
The CGI smirk I mentioned isn't seen quite as often as I remembered, but now I notice how they turned Flynn into some kind of hippie with his colloquial speech. He's been there for what would seem to be at very least hundreds of years, if not thousands, but he still talks like it's...not even the early 80's...but 60's or 70's. Weird.
I also like the casting more, Sam wasn't as bad as my initial impression.
The "getting dressed" scene is just as horrible and cheesy as I remembered, unfortunately.
My main issue is that I wish they had a whole lot more Boxleitner/TRON in there.

Best moment is still when Sam pops up on the Grid and that first Recognizer descends. Awesome.
That and the loud obnoxious arcade booming Journey and Eurythmics. Memories! LOL
The light cycles were well done, nice anti-aliasing allowing non-90 degree movement in-game. thumbsup
Needed more games and much less CLU though.

They had some recognizable people in the board room at the start of the movie, like Cillian Murphy as Dillinger's son. Surely they did that with another movie in mind, why else get a "name" actor in there?

The preview for the TRON Uprising animated series looks pretty interesting, and Boxleitner does have a role in that.

Maybe Murphy just wanted to be in a film that was NOT done by Nolan for a change.
