Totally agreed. I mean, the score was at least 20% Inception horns, wtf was that about? The dance party was great, but even then, they cut away just as Castor cued what seemed like was going to be the best beat dropped in the whole scene! With the way everyone was talking about the score I was pretty much expecting a 2 hour Daft Punk music video and it fell FAR short of that.

Also, Jeff Bridges x 2 in Tron = < 1/2 of the singularly awesome performance by Bridges in True Grit. That movie rocks, and is the far better film to see if you must choose between the two.

Would have definitely been our second choice, but with theater-going opportunities a rare commodity for us it was decided that, of the two, Tron would lose the most by not seeing it in the theater. If I was going to see that movie at all, it HAD to be in the theater,
True Grit I'll still be willing (and itching) to see at home.
