Rating: 5/10 (30 April 2019)

I thought blade runner(1982) was a well thought out film,and I see how this film was ground breaking at time of release but now this film confused me I did not know much of what was occurring during the film which was frustrating to me. The story is told all through and through there are no major flashbacks that I could remember seeing but that kinda sets into the confusion on my part I as a movie watcher prefer a little call back than scrolling at the beginning. I know you could say the same about Star wars but those movies were immediate action and drew you in this movie did not really do that for me. The setting is very future there are a lot of very weird wonky odd things occurring in the movie. Different shots were used to convey all sorts of different things in the film and they did a great job with that and how they used camera angles to their advantage. This movie was something I came into with an open mind but really couldn't gather everything it conveyed but I tried my hardest to. I enjoyed the movie but not as the plot tried to put it out to me. The costumes and the settings and everything they built was very cool and gave off a great vibe I loved the way the directors made everything work. The acting was very good I have no problem with any of that I thought it was very good and very thought out. I know I've gone back to this a lot in this review but the movie was confusing for me that may be because I watched it in class with a lot of talking but that's not usually how things occur in movies for me but maybe i need to open my mind for this movie and take deeper thought into it. This film was very very very ahead of it's time which I really respect about it and makes me like it a little more.
