Review of Blade Runner 2049 (2017) by Rabidbeta — 05 Oct 2017
The original is my favorite film, I should start with that. Is the sequel a masterpiece...no, but I'm more than happy with what I saw (in IMAX). Incredible world-building on par with the original, great casting/characters, award-winning cinematography, great direction, excellent score, and a solid script.
I felt it went on a bit too long, and a couple of scenes could be cut, and a few trimmed. But this long run doesn't hurt the film. I really liked it. I'll have to watch it a few dozen more times, and maybe I'll even come to love it as I do the original.
Four star film, but I gave it five stars for not screwing up a franchise I thought couldn't possibly be sequel-ed well.
