'TRON: Legacy' a feast for the eyes that makes no sense

The story, such as it is, changes direction every 10 minutes, introducing increasingly picayune rules for its universe, and mystifying motivations for its heroes and villains. By the time Michael Sheen briefly turns up, with white wig and a mincing British accent, suggesting an unholy alliance between Ziggy Stardust and Jiminy Cricket, the movie has evolved into a kind of orgy of the inexplicable. You get the sense that even the screenwriters - four of them are credited - have no idea what's supposed to be going on here.
