Tron

1982 · 1h 36m · Science Fiction, Action, Adventure

IMDb 6.7 Metacritic 58 RT 60%

Watch it tonight if you're in the mood for a visually inventive classic that basically invented the cyber-adventure genre—yes, it's dated, but the neon-soaked world and game-logic plot still hit different. Skip it only if you absolutely can't tolerate 80s special effects, because everything else here is weirdly ahead of its time.

Plot

When brilliant video game maker Flynn hacks the mainframe of his ex-employer, he is beamed inside an astonishing digital world and becomes part of the very game he is designing. In his mission through cyberspace, Flynn matches wits with a maniacal Master Control Program and teams up with Tron, a security measure created to bring balance to the digital environment.
