From the ridiculous 80s computer effects to the dumbly hummable theme, this is fantastic sci-fi fantasy from the age when it was all the rage. I will admit that my love for this movie comes from a definite sense of what I remember about it (it's really not that great).

This movie, just like the original tron was a cut above all else when it came to the computer effects. Very impressive when I saw this as a kid at the theatrical release, and still love it now.

This wonderful science fiction movie was a milestone. It was the next step from Tron in the development of CGI while the effects are cheesy by today's standards, they set the groundwork for realistic Graphics effects. The movie is itself, a wonderful Escapist, popcorn munching, fun time. If you have not seen it, you have been deprived
