”Tron. Legacy”

In the eighties dawn of science-fiction adventure "Faith" with Jeff Bridges in the lead role as the visionary game designer / hacker Kevin Flynn. He breaks into a large corporate computer systems, digitized using a laser and does battle must be in there in the digital world against various malicious software. The film flopped dramatically. Many would rather chose the more understandable, rain-soaked future dystopia "Blade Runner" - perhaps because most of the time was right vague notions of how computers worked at all. My God, people were generally not even vhs player at that time.
But quite a few far-sighted, imaginative creators looked after all utopian qualities in the film. And, like the explosion of the web in general and the gaming world in particular (such as "Tron" director Steven Lisberg probably never even dreamed of) making the sequel "Tron. Legacy "is here twenty-eight years later.

Jeff Bridges is much better known and loved this time, but few will choose "Faith. Legacy "because of him or his acting - even if Bridges makes a psychologically interesting mirror the role of her younger self as a victory walk for make-up department.

The new film starts when Bridges is still young, but the father of a little guy. He is still obsessed with his secret world, promises to bring her son there - but disappears without a trace before he could fulfill its promise. Twenty years later, his old partner, Adam, a greeting via his pager (great detail, does anyone remember them?) And son Sam set out on the web trying to find his father again. It sounds tearful, but are rather unsentimental.

"Faith. Legacy "is not devoid of emotion, but the focus is entirely different things than relationships. Design, design, clothing, music and breathtaking battles between "users" (people) and "software" of the closed digital world where all normal measurable quantities such as depth, space, boundaries are completely relative.

To say nothing of the cross biodigitala creatures that populate the creator Flynn's "inner" world. Try to include the idea? Difficult. "Faith. Legacy would like to change our view of reality in light of the Web in the way "The Matrix" did, but certainly lacks the film's philosophical and religious levels. In contrast, the visually overwhelming and where every detail is delicate chiselled, as the neon-lined suits, the careful clash between glossy high-tech and stylish retro ornamentation, Daft Punk's sensitivity to and whining ljusdiskusar As much a weapon as a sort of spiritual containers. Imaginative.
