A very considered movie

Rating: 9/10 (7 January 2018)

I never used to like the original, until I really got into movies a few years ago and watched it again and then, well it just sort of suddenly moves to the top of your Sci Fi chart.
I have the utmost respect for how the movie treated old fans, in that it did NOT bow down to obvious pressure to be a family film. It is respectful and different while obviously a Bladerunner movie, and unlike Scott with his new Alien films, did not titilate to eventually disappoint.
There is little dialogue early on, and the lead actor plays a fabulous brooding role that while nothing like Fords character, is still somehow familiar, slightly lost and tortured!
Some of the actors chosen for other parts are spot on, and simply put if you liked the first film you will love this.
The initial score that makes you feel at home, the environment, the fantasy, the billboards, everything will make you feel at home.
Yes, it's long, but who cares, it is worth it.
