A good but somewhat overrated sci-fi movie.

Rating: Null/10 (18 March 2000)

Harrison Ford and the other actors do a fine job in this darkly-filmed sci-fi movie but the storyline is quite simple and the search for"replicants" fairly predictable. Compared to other 1980s movies like Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark, etc, this one just does not hold up to those standards. And modern sci-fi movies like "The Matrix" simply blow it away.
When I read all the comments so far by "Blade Runner" fans, it sounds to me like they are talking about a "7" or "8" movie, but they give it a "10". I think "7" or "8" is about correct.
The DVD version has great sound and a sharp picture. It is an enjoyable movie, worth seeing, but just don't have your expectations too high.
