#TronAres was every part I might’ve needed from this franchise. An authorized BANGER. The NIN rating completely rips, it’s a visible FEAST, and the AI-driven plot was surprisingly compelling/related.

I’m very conflicted about #TronAres, a film performs with all the sci-fi tropes that tech bros study all of the fallacious classes from and has some genuinely rad motion sequences, however is slowed down by the charisma vacuum generally known as Jared Leto and a few distracting ADR.
