Review of Blade Runner (1982) by Angad S — 20 Sep 2018
Genre-defining and influential as it may be, Blade Runner's incredible plot and themes are done a disservice by the film's almost-cursory treatment of them. In particular, Harrison Ford's inability to flesh out his morally-dubious gumshoe detective character's personal struggle---about what it means to be human---makes Blade Runner little more than a visual treat, regardless of which cut you watch.
Perhaps a film too early for its time?
