# Fantastic movie.
Tragic lack of David Warner.

# I read that it lacked any real plot just like the original
but then we are talking the reviewer in The Metro

# Oh it definitely had a plot
Very beautifully delivered. There was arc, and redemption, the whole bit.

# And Jean Giraud designed set pieces.
Although everything still was impressive. Except Jeff Bridges' fake face.

# In terms of recreating the face of an actor from 30 years ago
and have it deliver key lines of dialogue full screen, I think they did a fucking amazing job. Especially when you consider in the first film the only bit of cg was a floaty dodecahedron.

# And it still had better range than the face.
(Additionally: I'm not saying I don't appreciate the growth of technical effects complexity, in fact I admire it enormously, even after many of my own atrocious experiments with Max and blender. The main issue I had with his face was minor details, at parts the mouth seemed stilted and too tight, and the other aspects like wrinkles, blemishes were noticeably absent. Ultimately I didn't really see the Jeff Bridges I recognised from the original Tron - or Starman - for me it just looked a little plastic. Nice effort though.)

# The thought did cross my mind
The original film was 'wow, cg lines and colouring in', this film was 'wow, cg actor'. Still enjoyed it though, daft punk and all. Better than the first (saw on it's original release), and never been tempted to revisit it.

# The face was good, but it wasn't perfect.

# Tragic lack of plot and just plain funny in places
All style which was nice.
