A modern classic

Rating: 8/10 (1 October 2018)

Finally saw the new Blade Runner, I was very impressed. The story is smart, dark, mysterious, and pure steampunk Noir. The film constantly gave you just enough information to know what was going on and keep you interested, but never enough to spell everything out for you .
I love that this film doesn't talk down to its viewers and it requires an active viewing experience. The setting and the futuristic world presenpresented in the film was amazing. The CGI was truly breathtaking and didn't feel fake at all.
Acting wise Ryan Gosling did a outstanding job. He really did a great job playing the stoic silent role. He constantly used his mannerisms and his eyes to emote his feelings to add a extra dimension to his character.
Despite how much I enjoyed the film it was not perfect. There were a few loose ends by the end of the film that would have been nice to tie up. I personally enjoyed the length of the movie and the pace, but I can see some viewers becoming overwhelmed. I overall really liked it 8.5 out of 10.
