Watch absolutely the director's cut

Rating: Null/10 (22 November 2002)

The "director's cut" version of this film is totally different from its previous versions, and this ultimate one done by the director himself is simply a "masterpiece." This film changed our vision toward not only Sci-Fi films but also our own future, and its dark and wet world influenced many other films. And this is not just a Sci-Fi movie, but a story of an "impossible love" as well as a drama of a middle-aged man who has lost his hope and trust toward anything in this world. And it is also a film of desperation and anger of discriminated people, who are never be treated as an ordinary man/woman. The best and most beautiful scene of this film is, without any doubt, the death of Rutger Hauer, and its stillness, solemnity and, above all, profound sadness is more than beautiful.
8 out of 10.
