Genius.

Rating: 9/10 (2 February 2008)

This was far from the first time that I'd seen Blade Runner, but it was the first time I'd seen the so-called 'final cut'. And it was great! I understand, but don't generally condone, directors wanting to revisit and polish their great works (the obvious example being Lucas' mutilation of Star Wars) but here Ridley Scott has done little more than put his picture in a shiny new frame  it's the same great piece of art, but it's a little better presented. I'll not list all the tweaks  lists of them are easy to come by  but I'll happily confirm the general opinion that the tweaks are seamless, as they should be. A great film, made a smidge more great. It doesn't get much more satisfying than that.
