Original Blade Runner was really one amazing Vangelis "music video"

Rating: 6/10 (10 October 2017)

did you not know that Mr. Villeneuve ;-) An intricate emotional, atmospheric and philosophical journey.

Blade Runner 2049 emulates some of the universe, but falls extremely short on the above mentioned elements. It's unevenly paced, poorly edited, like a string of individual scenes from different movies, with only little connection or common thread. Sometimes quiet and then suddenly extremely loud !? Slow scenes can be amazing if you put substance in them that elicit thoughts, emotions or drive the story forward â€“ this was just "slow doing nothing" in many scenes and therefore boring and long. Some scenes are extremely beautiful and well-made but others look like they are from another movie.
And making the blade runners into "2D" killer- or adult robots is just sad. I love Ryan Gosling, but 3 hours of Ryan Gosling playing Ryan Gosling is a bit too much. I just did not care for anyone in the movie!
The blatant product placement was like "flag scenes" in the 80ties and 90ties, awkward and reminding the audience that You are for saleÂ… same problem in Sicario sponsored by the tobacco industry ;-)
Please make Directors cut cut cut.
