Blade Runner

Retirement - Replicants - Resplendent. Blade Runner is one of those glorious films that has gained in popularity the older it has gotten. Ridley Scott's follow up to the critical and commercial darling that was Alien, was by and large considered a flop and damned for not being a science fiction...

The movie's story didn't do much for me, however I did find parts of it confusing. After watching it I found out that I watched the "Final Cut" which has a completely different ending and different implications from the theatrical release. I didn't understand those implications...I needed to look u...

Some people will say this classic sci-fi "has nothing to offer other than overrated cult-status". To that, I would respond, "it has Rutger Hauer on a rooftop, and that's enough for me". _Final rating:★★★★ - Very strong appeal. A personal favourite._ (3.5 for the Theatrical Cut, 4.0 for the Fi...

I have only viewed the Final Cut, and judging by reviews elsewhere this is possibly the most complete and satisfying version of them all. I cannot truthfully say I am in awe with this film as I found it quite plodding at times. But having said that the visionary aspects, the bleak surrounds, and...

Experienced on the big screen in the Everyman Cinema was just about the best way to loose myself in this spectacular SCI FI  masterpiece. Without Doubt “Blade Runner” has been extremely influential since its original release over 40 years ago and it’s technical wonder and effects are still as inspi...

"Blade Runner," Ridley Scott's iconic 1982 sci-fi masterpiece, is a film that transcends time with its **thematic depth** and **stunning visual design**. Having immersed myself in all the various cuts of the movie, I can confidently say that each version provides a unique experience worth exploring...

Visually stunning and completely immersive. Great performances by Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Daryl Hannah, Edward James Olmos etc. Ridley Scott does some impressive visuals, camera work, lighting etc. Love the completely immersive dark, gritty, rainy dystopia portrayed. I lo...
