Hard to fathom why people rate this movie

Rating: 5/10 (12 February 2018)

The absolutely ONLY thing that this film has going for it - is that the director didn't succumb to the normal futuristic movie mistake (and particularly American penchant) of making everything clean.
I dont know what it is, perhaps just the way the Hollywood sets and costumes are used in so many things - but if you watch even modern day episodes of Star trek - then a distant alien village of poor humanoids will still manage an immaculate village - and it will look as though people who have just come from the hairdressers have been handed a designer sack cloth which has just come from the dry cleaners.
So blade runner is a completely run of the mill story which has been done a million times before - which has been placed in a gritty realistic dirty future.
Star wars also sort of managed this a little - with ships and vehicles at least looking dirty and worm - but then spoilt it with aliens out of the muppets.
So Blade runner after having a fantastic dirty realistic looking future - then spoils it not with the muppets, but by making everyone wander around in some sort of miserable haze. There's not a single spark of normal human emotion in the entire movie - which just drags itself from long silence to long silence, and standing in the rain.
So it must be that people are just fixated on that stylization.
Because apart from that dirty future - maybe the music is pretty cool. or at least it fits in. Harrison Ford is his normal grumpy looking self.
