Too Pretentious

Rating: 5/10 (8 October 2017)

I only went to see Blade Runner 2049 because i liked the original 1982 Blade Runner.I should have trusted my instinct the first time.I didn't like the sequel at all.If they were going to do a Blade Runner sequel to the original they should have done so back in the 80's and not wait 30 odd years to do it.I found this version incredibly pretentious and a bit too artsy-fartsy for my tastes.Harrison Ford doesn't actually show up in the movie until well past the half way part of the film.They should have left it alone and leave the original to stand on its own.
