F--- the directors cut!

Rating: 10/10 (26 May 2002)

Ridley Scott made one great film and has been trying to screw it up ever since. Barring the "happy ending", the theatrical release is a far more cohesive and engaging film then the director's cut, he's tried to pass off at superior in recent years. Without the voice over and with the unicorn scene, the film feels aimless and Decker less conflicted. Since then Scott continues to bash his only great work (though 1492 was a great underappreciated film, Gladiator was an hour too long). Now he's claimed that Decker was a Replicant, further attempting to alter the original impact of the finest non Kubrick science fiction movie.
