TRON

For computer people, this movie is hilarious. For us normal people... actually, it was pretty funny for us too, but in a different way. TRON was made in 1982 and is about a guy named Kevin Flynn (played by Jeff Bridges) getting sucked into a computer. Pretty interesting. And funny. For computer people who know what they are talking about when they say things like "bit" and "memory chip" and other more complicated technical terms, this movie is funny because they understand how ridiculous the notion is that someone could get sucked into a computer. For the rest of us, its funny 'cause of how old it is.
But seriously, I actually really enjoyed watching this movie. The story was enjoyable and the effects were fantastic for how old it is.
As far as rating goes, I'm going to give the story a 3.5 out of 5. It's pretty predictable. How well it's made gets a 4 out of 5. For the era it was made in, the effects are phenomenal.
Sexual content gets a 5. There wasn't any. 
Violence gets a 4. There's less violence then you would see in the fake wrestling on TV, and its of the same caliber. They're throwing frisbees around and there's a shocker stick used as a weapon. 
Language gets 4. There wasn't much, but there was some. 
Overall I'm giving this movie a 4 out of 5. As far as age goes, this is a great family movie. It's clean and tame enough for the kids, and yet has enough amusing moments that it is enjoyable for the parents.
