Complete and human

Rating: 10/10 (13 February 2007)

Back in 82 when i saw this film,i never dreamed of the spectacle it showed with brilliance and awe.Ridley Scott to me is a director who sees raw naked feelings either from being shot to tortured.In blade runners scene of priss being shot three times,and yet not being able to die right away,the thrashing and screaming of agonizing pain is true to life.Most people shot don't die right away,instead they try to desperately to cope with the searing pain that a shot can inflict.And in that scene alone,made the hairs on the back of my neck stand straight up.Ridley captures the constant bombardment of humanity at its worst,then takes it to the next level.This film was made way ahead of its time,as a great detective film.With the classic narration of the private eye,telling us his ups and downs of trying to put a handle on his emotions through troubled times.But the single most beauty of it all,is from Douglas Trumbulls special effects.I was blown away from the sheer precision of machines,to towering buildings,reflecting an age of electric ambiance.His work is unrivaled,including close encounters of the third kind,and brainstorm as being his best work.This film gives movie goers a great genre of dark noir mixed with old fashioned detective work.To me this film will go down in history as the greatest work of ridley scott to date.
