I might be in the minority, but, I enjoyed Ares.
They reveal the character in the red/orange hue and I thought it might be ok with him being the bad guy.
Then I see he's producing it and it was pretty easy to see he was going to turn face and this was going to be the movie, that's when I said this isn't going to be good. However, his flat acting played pretty well into an AI that's learning.
All of the Tron movies require a major suspension of disbelief, none of them are going to win awards for plot, but that's not what these movies are for. When I see a Tron movie I just want to be entertained with pretty visuals and a solid soundtrack. If I want a movie that's going to challenge my view of the world I'm going to go somewhere else.
They have all been very plot light. Tron has always been great, interesting visuals, and stunts.
That, and very entertaining music. I felt that the second’s soundtrack overshadowed the actual movie by far.
I thought it was fine. I was surprised to find the stakes were interesting since I was just there for the visuals and the soundtrack. The visuals were cool, especially in 3D, but I only really noticed the soundtrack a few times. The jet ski scene was probably the coolest part of the movie.
