I can't see it ever being bettered

Rating: Null/10 (2 July 2004)

This film isn't traditional, shiny, parti-coloured scifi. The setting is totally convincing. The costume design is, in my opinion, unrivalled. Ridley Scott's trademark lighting and cinematography are there in all there sumptuous glory, and I haven't even got round to discussing the plot, cast, and immersive atmosphere. It simply oozes quality and intelligence from every angle.
MINOR SPOILER AHEAD
The extended scene where Deckard chases Zhora through the busy streets of fourth sector is a cinematic tour-de-force. The attention to detail in this scene, and many, many others is astounding.
I can't recommend this movie enough.
As Rhutger Hauer said in the BBC documentary 'On the edge of Blade Runner', 'Ridley Scott showed us the future, and it was old.'
