The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

After hearing so much about Blade Runner, I finally saw it for the first time. The one thing that can't be taken away from it is its beautiful art direction. Nearly every set was a delight, and I can see how this movie influenced the visual look of sci-fi movies and comic books. (A lot of graphic novels in Heavy Metal back in the day mimicked its style.)With that being said, as soon as I finished watching it, it reminded me of The Phantom Menace. Why? Just like TPM, Blade Runner did an amazing job of plunging audiences into a fantastical world that felt and looked very convincing. It also had amazing visuals that set a new standard for world building and special effects. However, for all of its sumptuous visual details, it was an incredibly shallow film with a paper thin plot.Let's face it: this movie practically has no story. Don't get me wrong: it has characters. It has a setting. It has a premise. It has themes. But once it introduces all four in the first 20 minutes, that's it. Then it's just a random jumble of disconnected scenes that don't really flow together or make sense. At times the movie was so disjointed it felt as if scenes were missing. That leads me to the next biggest problem with this film. Ironically, even though the set design, blocking of shots and cinematography couldn't have been more perfect, the movie messed up in the most basic of film techniques. For example, the editing couldn't have been more choppy; at times, they felt like jump cuts. Another thing I noticed is that the movie recycled the same handful of footage, establishment shots, sets and dialogue over and over again. It was like something out of a low budget 1980s Filmation animated TV show, where they would always keep using the same animation, backgrounds and footage repeatedly. Think I'm kidding? Count how many times these show up: 1) Leon's test 2) The blimp advertising the Other World 3) The green tunnel 4) The street corner with the odd pillars 5) The establishment shot of the Los Angeles skyline with the gigantic billboard on the right hand side 6) The set where Priss first meets Sebastian 7) The noodle stand where people walk by with neon umbrella handles 8) The street level shot of LA with the glowing skyscapers. Other problems: the twist in the end revealing that the Replicants had fee fees the entire time felt like a weak limitation of I Am Legend. Plus, it rang hollow. Maybe if they hadn't been such diabolical sociopaths I would've bought it but this twist came across as cheap and lazy after the movie worked so hard to set them up as sadistic monsters.But the biggest problem of all for me with Blade Runner was Harrison Ford. I've never cared for Ford as an actor but I would always try to give him the benefit of the doubt. His performance here finally confirmed what I've always suspected about him, that so much of what people think as him playing a rogue character to perfectiom is him in real life showing up on the set with a bad attitude. He does not act in this movie. He sulks as if he doesn't want to be there or has contempt for the material, and his narration sucks. The entire time all I could think of was how terribly miscast he was and how much better someone like Dennis Quaid or maybe Jeff Bridges would've been in this role.So count me in as one of those people putting Blade Runner in the overrated camp. If you want to see truly groundbreaking futuristic sci-fi that actually has a plot and deserves to be considered a classic, watch Metropolis. But Blade Runner, outside of its amazing visuals, is a big fat meh.

This movie was so slow moving and boring an I didn't understand it much, ...not good.I didn't like it. I give Blade Runner a 3/10

It wasn't until my teens that I watched this film. It was a little hard to follow but I got into it and it made me interested in cyberpunk. That's a brand of science-fiction that deals with urban environments and cybernetics and computer technology. Think TV shows like Batman Beyond and games like Deus Ex. But this could very well be the precursor to all those different cyberpunk sagas. Here is the story of a gang of near-human androids known as Replicants who want to live comfortable lives. But not if the LAPD has anything to say about it. Harrison Ford plays a police detective whose job it is to eliminate these near-humans. Can he do it? Will the Replicants claim victory? Is he destined for a quick funeral? You'll have to watch and find out.

A milestone in sci-fi movies. No human eating monsters, no dark shadows that prey humans, no blood splashing scenes. A hymn to the purest aspects of real psych which conquers even man-made androids. A link between intellect and the very essence of human existence .
