See the Wikipedia article, "Versions of Blade Runner," for an explanation of what's in and what's out of the various versions available. Certainly this Final Cut is the only one with the full "unicorn dream" sequence.

I'm not sure why this is called "The Final Cut". It's in letterbox format (widescreen with black at top and bottom) which is annoying. There was only a five second part added near the beginning and other than that it was identical to…

The plot? Doesn't really matter, like a lot of cyberpunk. Like, you can debate if Deckard is a replicant or not or whether you like the original narration, but really that's not the point of the movie. The point is the mood: overbuilt…

My personal favorite as greatest movie ever made. It visually stunning and musically hypnotic. The use of depth, light, color and shadows are astounding. It's not science fiction or film noir but a love story that asks the questions of…

I found it very dark and moody and very visceral. Liked the version with the narration the best because it added dialogue to the film. Like Indiana Jones and Star Wars, a movie that stood way above what Hollywood was pumping out at the…

This particular copy includes the commentary from the director, and two other filmmakers. Wow, I never watched a movie with the director's comments before! I learned so many things and noticed so many subtleties that I had not perceived…

A really gritty shot of the near future(2019). This movie gets better every time I watch it, at least once a year. One of the things I enjoy is seeing ads for companies that were in existence when the film was made(Atari, TDK et al) The…

Visually, movies don't get much more beautiful than this. It's a sight to behold, like a moving art piece that last for roughly 2 hours. The story itself is pretty straightforward and pretty standard compared to what's come after but for…

This is a 1982 American neo-noir SF directed by Ridley Scott, based on the novel "Do androids dream of electric sheep?" by Philip K. Dick, originally released as a motion picture in 1982. The film depicts a dystopian Los Angeles in which…

One of the all time great science fiction classics- with Harrison Ford as a noirish blade runner trying to run down escaped replicants. A must see for science fiction lovers.

Great movie, the book is even better!

This is a great film by Ridley Scott with vast metaphorical associations for the present. Watch it closely.

I can't believe I waited until now to watch this movie. I really loved the futuristic gritty style of the world Ripley Scott created. A great noir/sci-fi film. A must see for fans of both genres.

I think that it is the absolute opposite of "class" when one takes a movie set up for Entertainment purposes and applies pseudopsychology and propaganda to try and turn it into a political.rant. Sheesh. This is simply a classic…

Classic science-fiction movie based on the Philip K. Dick novel " Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep ", it poses the question of what it means to be human in a dystopian society of the future. The movie is worth watching, and the book is…

This movie's portrayal of a rainy, overcrowded, dirty, dystopian city reminds me of Vancouver ( despite it's own claims to be " the best city on earth " ). The films pace is slow ( this CAN be a good thing, and it is here- it's used to…

The version of Blade Runner that I recently viewed was the one that proudly boasted - "Director's Cut". (Ooooh!) The high-lighted blurb displayed across the DVD package assured me that this version was "A Major Event!"......…

To be honest, I liked the book much more (but I usually do). It was an interesting sci-fi movie very loosely based on "Do androids dream of electric sheep." Very loosely based. I feel like more could have happened and they could have…

A classic "cult" movie. As with Fifth Element, 3 Days of the Condor, Last Man Standing, 2001, etcetera (quite a few others), one tends to love them or hate them (or at best tolerate them). Some even didn't do well initially at the box…

Hey! Get this straight. If you don't like Blade Runner, you don't understand it. Why? Because you don't. You're not allowed to dislike it. Over the years Blade Runner has gathered around itself such a huge fan-base (that's so out of…

Should be a 6-star. I love this movie, my favorite remains the one with the narration. Even after 30+ years it doesn't feel dated--except for some of the computers. Still a good story.

This movie is about genetically designed super slaves, who perform better than ordinary humans, mentally and physically. Allegedly, these were used as slaves on other planets (you know, slavery was and is impossible on this planet!) and…

One of the best scifi movies I have ever seen. A good classic!!

A masterpiece science fiction film from director Ridley Scott and lead Harrison Ford. A dreary bleak future (which is a lot closer now than when the film first came out) sets the backdrop for this story of a policeman who hunts artificial…

Ridley Scott has been hit-and-miss with me for awhile now. I loved THELMA & LOUISE, GLADIATOR, and MATCHSTICK MEN. ALIEN felt mediocre in its pacing. Then, here comes BLADE RUNNER to give ALIEN a run for its money. Talk about slow and…
