TRON: Ares2025-10-16
Toronto, ON
I mean, if you went into this expecting anything more than eye candy and a thumping score, I don't know what to tell you. I got what I was looking for, particularly because of my tempered expectations due to the handover in talent from TRON: Legacy — Daft Punk was a bigger draw for me than Nine Inch Nails, and Joseph Kosinski has a much better resume than Joachim Rønning at this point. These are things you probably just know going into this, so I don't think there is a whole lot of room for disappointment. Jared Leto's presence may deter some people from watching this, but I think he was fine here, in a role that didn't require him to be particularly human anyways.
Watched in IMAX at Scotiabank Theatre Toronto. First theatre watch after moving to Toronto. This IMAX screen is top-tier — even the trailers, particularly The Bride! with its 1.43:1 aspect ratio, looked fantastic. No doubt this will be my home theatre for IMAX releases. It was a lot of fun picking out Vancouver landmarks here, like BC Place, Cambie Bridge, and lots of scenes on Burrard Street. Interesting that they didn't even bother to obfuscate the Vancouver street signage!
