It's too bad she didn't live....

Rating: 10/10 (14 October 2017)

If I had to name my all time favourite movie then Blade Runner would be it. With the news that it was to be revisited, I was initially excited before the doubt started to creep in over the time spent waiting for the release of 2049...
I needn't have worried. Fancher, Villeneuve, the cast and crew have put together a stunning return for Blade Runner. Many subtle nods to the original from the soundtrack to the way K directs his drone around, like Deckard maneuvering his way around the photo in the original. It all came together beautifully. The atmosphere of the original is maintained, even out of the city. The lingering uncertainty about the Deckard\Jessica offspring which has such an impact on the way the story un-folds matches the pace of the movie as it moves towards it's climax.
Blade Runner is still my all time fave, there's a new number two on the list now.
It's just too bad there wasn't a way to work in a 2049 Sean Young. Her skeleton isn't anywhere near as attractive :)
