The son of a virtual world designer goes looking for his father and ends up inside the digital world that his father designed. He meets his father's corrupted creation and a unique ally who was born inside the digital world.
Sam Flynn, the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn, looks into his father's disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 20 years. Along with Kevin's loyal confidant Quorra, father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous. Meanwhile, the malevolent program CLU, who dominates the digital world, plans to invade the real world and will stop at nothing to prevent their escape.Written by

7 Year Old Sam Flynn:
You got in.
Kevin Flynn:
That's right, man. I got in.

Yes. I had watched this movie back in 2010 when I was in school. Didn't understand much, but I was blown away by the visuals.. But now watching in 2019, it all makes sense and the visuals are yet world class. This movie was ahead of its time.
Worth watching!
