Brilliant, beautiful, philosophical flick.

Rating: 10/10 (7 October 2017)

Direction, cinematography, and plot points, and the technological / man+machine and general human themes explored were all excellent in my opinion. The score was outstanding too.
A lot of these reviews seem to be drawing too many comparisons to the original, in my opinion, which is really needless. It's a different movie. Of course there are some things in the first that won't be done again (nor should).
It has a more minimalist tone in some ways than the original, while being wide and expansive. It's "philosophical explorations" were not "in your face". I normally love at least a couple of laughs in my movies, and while there was not a single laugh in this, it didn't need one.
Honestly, I don't know what some reviewers expect in a movie -- I assume utter perfection by their standards.
It's an excellent movie. There are things I would do differently, but really, it's amazing that I can see something like this.
I'm sad to see it did not have a good opening weekend.
