If You Missed It...

Rating: 9/10 (28 August 2019)

You missed it! Once again I'm back to leave a review to counter all the negative feedback! First of all, as far as sequels go, Bladerunner is exquisite! A TRUE sci-fi gem! I actually had to watch it a couple times to comprehend just who was AI, & who wasn't! & I'm expressing it just this way NOT to give up ANY spoilers.
Ryan Gosling delivers that same cool, calm & collective demeanor that he gives in Drive! He really is underrated as an actor. Casting is on point.
As far as staying true to the original Bladerunner, the visuals & cinematography are superb. Score... same synth sounds, which hardly make the sequel seem like it's almost 40 years later!
Storyline was plausible, as far as picking up from where the original left off... compensating for the decades in between the 2 movies. Great cameos! & Denis Villeneuve pays wonderful respect & homage to Ridley Scott's version of the original Bladerunner!
This is more of a cerebral movie, as opposed to CGI. If you prefer the latter... Star Wars movies will probably be more for you. If you appreciate conceptual sci-fi, that deals with technology & consciousness we've yet to even fully understand, then you will most certainly appreciate this GEM!
