An incredible follow up to the original Blade Runner

Rating: 10/10 (27 January 2018)

Off the bat 'Blade Runner 2049' begins with some truly breathtaking cinematography that continues throughout the whole film. The choice of colour for scenes is extremely attention grabbing. Ryan Gosling nails the role of the replicant "K" with his performance during his investigations. Ryan Gosling also has a very fluent relationship with the love interest "Joi" played by Ana Des Armas. As well Harrison Ford reprises his role as "Rick Deckard" and delivers a great performance as he is very energetic and engaging in all of his scenes. Without discussing the actors or plot, this film brilliant incorporates the themes of its predecessor as well as aiming to introduce new ideas to stand on its own as a fantastic mystery/sci-fi film. As the original Blade Runner influenced a whole generation of sci-fi films, I believe this newer installment will influence other movie sequels to visit their own original movie and then improve.
Definitely worth a watch for any kind of viewer 9/10.
