Tron: Ares begins with a competition between Julian Dillinger and Eve Kim, the heads of two powerful companies, to lead the future of artificial intelligence. Both are close to achieving their goals but lack one crucial element. Julian has developed a cutting-edge security program called Ares, hoping to demonstrate the strength of his AI. Eve, on the other hand, aims to use AI to tackle global challenges.
Once Eve discovers something important, Julian uses his software to follow her lead. Meanwhile, Ares starts acting independently and demonstrates a growing ability to control things, as he tries to figure out where he belongs in both the human and digital realms.
Verdict on Tron: Ares
Recap
The film centers on a fierce rivalry between tech companies competing to create a program that can surpass artificial intelligence. One CEO attempts to sabotage his competitor using his advanced security systems, but his own creations unexpectedly develop independent thought.
Best Parts
As a tech enthusiast, I’m always struck by the visually rich world of programming. But this film really digs into something bigger – how AI is poised to impact *all* aspects of our lives. It’s fascinating to see how the narrative cleverly weaves together themes of both military applications and environmental shifts, exploring the potential consequences of this powerful technology.
Worst Parts
The movie’s biggest flaw lies in its portrayal of the human world. It feels lifeless and uninteresting, and whenever something happens, it’s as if everything else has stopped.
Ultimately, *Tron: Ares* builds on the visually stunning digital world fans love, but the story in the real world doesn’t quite capture the same excitement.
