High Expectations

Rating: Null/10 (10 August 2002)

I expected a lot from this movie. I already understood that the replicants were treated inhumanely-even though they too have lives that matter, before I saw it. I found that this movie dragged, and lacked a lot of dialogue. (I'm a dialogue person. The version that I saw was also the Director's Cut and have never seen the original theatrical release.) Plus, the minute amount of important dialogue is corny. "...like tears in the rain(sic)"? Com'on! That's like saying "like the sands in the hourglass, these are the days of our lives" is poetic. I like sly, clever dialogue. Sorry, I'm not a style person. (I must also apologize for my grammar and organization. I not being very eloquent lately.)
