Two feature films have been produced based on the Tron character, 1982's "Tron" and the 2010 sequel, "Tron: Legacy." "Tron: Uprising" takes place during the time period between the story lines of the two movies. In the series, young program Beck becomes the leader of a revolution inside the computer world of The Grid, tasked with the mission of freeing his home and friends from the reign of Clu and his henchman, Gen. Tesler. To prepare for the challenge, Beck is trained by Tron -- the greatest warrior The Grid has ever known -- who mentors Beck as he grows beyond his youthful nature into a courageous and powerful leader. Destined to become the system's new protector, Beck adopts Tron's persona to battle the forces of evil.

Kevin Yeoman Screen Rant Oct 2
The story is so simple, effective and inviting, that it causes one to wish the premise of Uprising had become the plot for Legacy. Go to Full Review
TK Burton Pajiba Oct 2
It’s a flashy, fast-paced and well-acted new addition, adding a solid depth to the gaps in between the films. Most importantly, it’s fun, something that was sadly missing from the sequel. Go to Full Review

Emily Ashby Common Sense Media Oct 2
4/5
With no disconnect between live-action and special effects (an issue with the movies), viewers can fully immerse themselves in the setting and the story. Go to Full Review
Cameron K. McEwan Den of Geek Oct 2
The character of the world, and its inhabitants, is gorgeously stylized; giving its bigger brother big screen versions a close run in terms of quality, freshness and originality. Go to Full Review

Ry N @RyGuy Jan 7 Flynn's program turns against The Grid to irradiate the ISO, programs without Users, so Tron trains a program named Beck to start an uprising against Clu, Dyson, and Tesler in Argon City. This is like the Batman Beyond of the Tron franchise, unfortunately it ends on a cliff hanger and never got a second season as Clu starts to tighten his control and The Renegade's following starts to bubble up. See more Brother A @BrAnthony Dec 20 Plot is simple and continues to surprise you as it unravels itself in its complex and unique characters, the music paying homage to Daft Punk's score to Tron: Legacy in a fitting way. The writers actually cared about their subject matter and it was a story you wanted to keep going! Easily one of those shows that hits the top 5. See more Alex A. @TheKriticKid Dec 19 This is easily one of the best tv shows of all time. See more Max W @MaxthorWoo Dec 2 Tron: Uprising constructed its story on a classic narrative framework, crafting likeable characters and offering a profound expansion of the Tron universe; unfortunately, the series was canceled after its first season, which prevented it from reaching a proper conclusion.

I hope Disney will do 2nd season in the future 🙏 See more Read all reviews
