A movie that grows on you to become the greatest.

Rating: Null/10 (23 November 2003)

Cast aside your bad day in seeing matrix revolutions and see the best sci-fi movie ever made, Blade Runner
This movie is just magical, but like allot of other people, I didnt like it the first time i saw it either. It just was not what I expected it to be, a action movie. However the fact that the movie forces the viewer to question it, but the movie delivers when seeing it sometimes makes it better and more real, and this world is real. This movie's special effects still dazzle and while its not star wars(thank god)its not meant to dazzle, but still it dazzles! The scenery is just the best, in depicting a high tech but still a run down rathole LA, as we are raised to heaven at the tyrell corporations pyramid or run down abandoned buildings. Writing about scenery, this movie is a noir story with heavy drinking anti heroes and femme fatale(but no cardboard badguy since everyone is a hero in their sense)set in the future, but changing the time of place would still throw the whole thing of because of the movies theme. What does it mean to be human? And who is human? In terms of the matrix this has challenged me more because as a person i question myself and my role in society as to who i am, but i guess the matrix does that too to a point. Grade A acting, Harrison Ford does his best role, and his reasons for disliking this movie is entirely his own nothing with the movie itself, but the pain of the production of it.Scott is just a great director and as the reviewer before said he captures the mood perfectly, its a grim movie so it should be grim. If you loved the mood of the movie as I then dont miss Alien and Legend as they capture just like Blade Runner what it set out to do. I just love this movie. See it, but go into it with a open mind
