Dark, stylish, and bizarre...yet very boring to my eyes

Rating: 5/10 (29 July 2005)

After all the high reviews and hailed as one of the greatest sci-fi films or one of the greatest movies in the 80's, I decided to rent and watch Blade Runner. The film felt a little empty to me. Harrison Ford is to be one of the greatest actors alive who did such amazing movies like Star Wars and The Fugitive, had a wooden performance like a children's toy. I found him to be quite a boring character of Blade Runner. The movie was very dark and the film was just too serious. I also thought the film was bizarre and had tons of weird moments, but I guess that I have to watch the film twice to understand all of it instead of most of it. The positive side is that the film was very stylish and had a lot of cool inventions and nice scenery for a 80's film. But the best side of Blade Runner was Rutger Haurer who really carried the movie as the creepy replicant. He did a fantastic job. Overall, I thought the movie was disappointing and was just too empty and boring for me to really like it. Nothing special to me.
