Quite awkwardly named this one, as it came out the same year as another film called "Nine"! You won't find Daniel Day Lewis in this though, rather a bleak industrial fantasy that struggles to fill its feature length. 9 retains the imaginative design work of the original short that inspired it, but like the wasteland it depicts there are slim pickings to be found in the plotting and characterisation departments, with whatever exists cobbled together into a not-unpleasant but unsatisfying whole.

THE SHORT VERSION

Forlorn ragdoll people

A spin-off TV series meant to bridge the gaps between the films Tron and Tron Legacy, Tron Uprising is an intelligent and masterfully crafted cartoon which explores many complex themes; the rule of government, insurrection, xenophobia, existentialism, ethical and moral quandaries. All this while still being an action-packed show with plenty of appeal to audiences young and old. Unfortunately cancelled before it was able to finish out the season what we are left with is an incomplete product that is nonetheless essential viewing for sheer entertainment value and to wonder at what more could have been achieved.

THE SHORT VERSION

In this land, the man with rocket punch is king.

We love you Virtual Jeff Bridges
