Gosling spares no prisoners and then follows a lead re his origins

Rating: 3/10 (10 October 2017)

Taken at face value, this showcase of Gosling's acting might be construed as strange, to say the least. But he really can scream like a Banshee. Say Ryan, if you're reading this would you consider the role of Jason Numbers in my novel Crazy Train that just has to be made into a movie, just has to. Numbers is a real estate agent by day, a cold blooded henchman, named the Banshee at night. And true to his name, he does scream like a Banshee before putting the dinner knife into probation officer, Tank Holdern's side at Vanessa Carlton's sweet seventeen party. Say, Blade Runner has a similar scene, Ryan's char getting a knife to the side. Maybe great minds do think alike... So, the wounds from the cyborg-like assassin's non-dinner knife - in fact, its a switch blade - are what kills Ryan's char. I don't mind spoiling other people's story's, not my own however. Ha, ha, ha. But this guy's life hasn't been a total dud, he sees a hologram of Elvis Presley singing one of his many spirituals - talk about a bucket list. What is it about Presley that makes people believe he's just another guy who could sing rockabilly. I'm of the opine that, like most artists he never felt he quite belonged, and his ballads are pretty good because of it. To it's credit, Blade Runner dialogue is exquisite in places, taking English to a level only Shakespeare could have devised. The villain couldn't be more cold-hearted and downright scary. I wished that the story had ended with the villain's death, not the Blade Runner's. Don't ask me why, the writer wanted it to end this way. Some people hate their jobs, I guess. For that reason, I wouldn't recommend seeing this installment. Except for the dialogue in places, a cool twist on who the Blade Runner could have possibly been, and a very well done sex scene with the computer in a real woman - what the heck, see the darn thing for those three reasons.
