I was very disappointed by this album. I'm a big fan of Daft Punk and like a good and original soundtrack album. I expected a Daft Punk electronic and bleepy variation on a soundtrack album, but most of the tracks are the default Hans Zimmer way of making a soundtrack: big orchestral pieces with a log of big gestures and cheap emotions and lots of bombast. The occasional electronic tracks (especially "Derezzed" and "Troy Legacy (End Titles)") are great and really stand out. Of course these few songs can't save this album from mediocracy.

I knew this soundtrack and liked it back when it was new. It’s very interesting, though, listening to it now. Several months ago I saw Daft Punk’s Interstella 5555 movie release in the theatre and was enthralled at the colorful animation and music. TRON: Legacy is a very different thing. Daft Punk shows incredible versatility creating an orchestral, dramatic, and suprisingly dark soundtrack. I happened to have the opportunity to listen to this on a night-time drive and it was perfect for the occasion. So many great moments that gave me goosebumps - and other moments that felt almost out of a horror movie soundtrack. Such a contrast to their other work. Great selection… a surprise because I would never have thought to nominate this.

I think the 2010 Tron movie would not have been made if Daft Punk hadn't existed. It was just a perfect blend of visuals and sound that had to happen. Very cool.

Epic. Much better than I expected. 4 stars.

With the exception of Broadway adaptations, it's hard to think of an OST that has so completely eclipsed the source material it's part of. Daft Punk was a slam dunk choice for soundtracking a Tron movie, giving the world the chance to hear the robots' classic electronica melded with brass and strings for a wall-to-wall listening experience. Some of the hard edges had to be sanded away to meet the Mouse's standards (no acid or saw synths here), but for the most part, this LP sounds like DP had free rein to inject their unique flavor of French house alongside orchestral accents to make something wholly unique. It sits a bit awkwardly in the duo's discography given the lackluster nature of the film, but I still throw this on regularly when working or driving later at night and am just happy it exists. Would love to see more notable OSTs on the list, indie artists have had an increasing stake in pictures big and small, and there are some great soundtrack LPs worthy of recognition here as a result.

BRILLIANT, top class instrumental album. Move over Shostakovich and Beethoven, make room for Daft Punk!

A soundtrack 500x better than its movie

Movie was okay. Soundtrack made it much better. Some tracks sound 100% Daft Punk. But the more 'classical' songs are cool too

Real good

Listened to this before, but it's just not enough I need at least ONE leitmotif from this album 3

I'd give this a 3.5. I think it perfectly fits with the TRON theme and they did a great job. A couple of the songs had their own trade mark sound. I don't think I would listen to this outside a movie setting, but it was a nice listen.

It's a little bit of a bummer to see Daft Punk credited underneath that Disney logo (and now Nine Inch Nails!). But hey, who am I to begrudge anyone a big paycheck? This sounds like soundtrack music and I won't deny it made my session of cleaning and detailing my car's interior feel very epic. I don't think it's the band's best or most important work but I liked it OK.

Inte dåligt men kanske inte jättespännande med filmmusik. Daft Punk har dessutom något album för mycket på den här listan.

I don’t really listen to Daft Punk yet every time I do I enjoy it. This was no exception. Although it wasn’t as amazing as the others I have heard from them. Recently I listened to the new Tron soundtrack by NIN I enjoyed that one more.

TRON: Legacy suffers from the same issue as a lot of soundtracks or scores we've had on the list; it's fine in and of itself but it was made for a more complete experience and we only get part of it here. It turned out to be fine music to work to this morning, it's undeniably atmospheric but also pretty much the same thing for 31 tracks? I wouldn't actively seek it out to listen to nor would I listen again but it's just a solid movie soundtrack that can't get more than a 3/5.

I have the feeling I’m going to listen to every Daft Punk album except for Human After All because of these two lists.

Film score, orchestra, synthesizer music, electronic. Me ha aburrido. Un 2.

Didn't hold up as well as I thought it was going to. Like in context of the movie, sure, it's the only worthwhile part of the thing. But on it's own, it only really shows some signs of life for "Derezzed," and the rest of it is just variations on That One Motif over and over and fucking over. Further demerits for said motif sounding way too close to Ennio Morricone's "The Ecstasy of Gold"

irrelevant addition to the project

Nov 22 2025 Author

Doesn't really scream Daft Punk to me. Other than that, it's exactly what it says: a score to a movie I have no interest in.

Was not to my taste listening to old movie soundtracks, but whatever floats your boat, buds.

I've never seen the Tron movies and this is absolutely not the vibe I've associated with this franchise. Ultra-epic generic Hans Zimmer ass orchestra. It's just nothing. Wouldn't even guess this was Daft Punk in a million years if I didn't see the artist name. Very much not a fan.
