Wasn't expecting it to be like this

Rating: 10/10 (27 August 2015)

When I got to know of the blade runner's existence I made up in my mind an image of it being just some science fiction flick with gore and 80s music. THerefore, when I got to see it, I was... it's undescribable. I've seen other ridley scott films, the gladiator and Robin hood, but I would almost say that those films have been directed by a different person. The overall story of the film is quite simple, what makes the movie become a masterpiece is the way it is developed. Being a Christopher Nolan fan myself, I can say that I can see how Nolan's cinematography is influenced by this particular film. Other than visuals, and the way the story is shown, also the score fitted perfectly. Some sort of progressive rock merged into a filmscore, with powerful electric sounds that fitted perfectly the cyberpunk atmosphere. As for the gore in the film, I myself checked what does it consist of in the IMDb parents' guide. Literally, the way it's described makes it seem more gory than what it is. And as I was one of those people that turned around into certain scenes of the lord pf the rings, you can judge wheter you can handle it or not. Luckily enough, the fact that there are many different cuts of the film allows to choose the Director's cut version, which contains none of said gore, even though apparently the Final Cut of the movie is what Ridley Scott feels closer to his vision of the film.
