Blade Runner 2049 Film Review: Harrison Ford is still the Ultimate Blade Runner
I was (and still am) a big fan of the iconic 1982 original. The grey, dingy, unattractive visual appearance has influenced the look of the 'future' in almost every other sci-fi film since.
The original plot has had audiences discussing the 'is he or isn't he' Deckard character for over 30 years. I anticipated something special, but surprisingly felt a little let down. My spontaneous reaction is that besides the very noisy soundtrack and overlong run-time, it's hard to pin-point the reason for the lack of magic, which the original had in abundance, as there's nothing wrong but nothing very special either.
2049 sequel won't endure in quite the same way, probably not worthy of a second viewing.
7/10
