Review of Blade Runner 2049 (2017) by Cassiereaburb — 07 Aug 2019
A masterpiece and I already knew it before they shot the first frame. This is a Denis Villeneuve film, and anybody versed with the man's filmography will realize that this is an artist of the highest order.
Had Blade Runner been given to anybody- even Ridley, I can guarantee you the final result wouldn’t be half as good as what we see here. Ryan Gosling takes over the role played by Harrison Ford in the 1982 original and he essays an effortlessly cool protagonist living in the future of decay and destitute.
Harrison Ford is also back in a glorified cameo but its glad to see the old man back in this Universe. The special effects are amazing with a careful mixture of carefully rendered CGI and practical effects.
The film looks fantastic, but it is the plot that is the heart and soul of this great film. You should go and watch Blade Runner before seeing 2049 and then come and marvel at this masterpiece. One of the best recent science fiction films.
(Denis Villeneuve has created a masterpiece).
