Finally got around to watching this!

Rating: 8/10 (31 July 2017)

I finally got around to watching this movie for the first time last night, after having it on my watchlist for years. Blade Runner is one of my brother's favourite movies and he has always encouraged me loads to watch it. Sci-fi and thriller movies are my absolute favourite genres, so I think I was always going to love this. I am also a huge fan of Ridley Scott's work so this was a perfect recipe for something that I would really enjoy!
The storyline I found to be very interesting and kept me enthralled throughout. The acting was of a good standard and I found all of the characters to be completely believable. The main thing that I enjoyed about this movie was the overall visual and audio style. It truly created a fully immersive universe that I felt very connected to. I particularly enjoyed Scott's use of lighting throughout the movie to create a futuristic yet somewhat eerie feel.
Overall I am glad that I took the time to watch this movie and it really did live up to my high expectations!
