Reddit reviews Blade Runner: The Final Cut

My favorite film? Mad Max: Fury Road. Why? Because it's unlike anything I've ever seen before in film. Best of all, practical effects and stunts. Crazy stunts, too. It's a respectable action film too that you can tell the filmmakers put a lot of effort into making.

Different people have their own opinion on what qualifies as a good movie. I like films with characters put in situations that go against their nature (Like Blade Runner). Underdog stories are also a personal favorite of mine.

I highly recommend you see Blade Runner. However, there are several different versions floating around. My personal favorite is this version.

I don't think it's science fiction, it is! It's based off renowned author, Phillip K. Dick's 1966 novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" (albeit, loosely). A Blade Runner is a type of Bounty Hunter whose sole job is to hunt down bioengineered beings, or "Replicants" and retire them (euphemism for killing them). Harrison Ford plays Rick Deckard, a former Blade Runner who is brought back to hunt down four Replicants who have returned to Earth illegally.

It's a Science Fiction/Action film that operates on multiple dramatic and narrative levels. Check it out.
