Now this is a cool film and even better now i have it on DVD.
Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) prowls the steel-and-microchip jungle of 21st-Century Los Angeles. He's a blade runner stalking genetically made criminal replicants. His assignment: kill them. Their crime: wanting to be human.
The story of blade runner is familiar to countless fans including myself. But few have seen it like this. Because this is director Ridley Scott's own vision of his sci-fi classic.
This new version omits Deckard's voiceover narration, develops in slightly greater detail the romance between Deckard and Rachael (Sean Young) and removes the uplifting finale.
The result is a heightened emotional impact: a great film made greater. Most intriguing of all is a newly included unicorn vision that suggests Deckard may in fact be a humanoid.
Do androids dream of electric sheep?
Is Deckard a replicant?
As with all things in the future, you must discover the answer for yourself.
Advantages: Brilliant Cast, Brilliant Director, Brilliant Set, Brilliant Music...Brilliant Film! Disadvantages: Not one for those who like their sci-fi in the star wars mould
