Review of Blade Runner 2049 (2017) by Omar B — 16 Sep 2018

Honestly disappointed. It's nearly impossible to match the original, that's obvious, and this does a very good work visually, but it's the story that lacks any depth. Sure you throw in the original "who's human and who's a replicant?" kind of mystery, but everything else is totally ordinary.

You know from the start that Ryan Gosling is the good guy and the secretary lady (or whatever) and Jared Leno are the "bad guys", there are no layers that need to be analized or interpreted, everything is put there since the first moment, as a consequence lots of situations brings no surprises or emotions.

There is no darkness, no questions open to interpretation, no ethical issues, it's flat. And please stop bringin back Harrison Ford in any goddamned "sequels" of everything, he's almost 80 now.
