Review of Blade Runner 2049 (2017) by Riff J — 04 Jan 2018

(96/100).

I have no words... This is just a really f*cking good Sci-Fi movie! Better than the first one. I love these characters, I love this world. I want to see more! I'm so invested in this world eversince watching the first Blade Runner. Denis Villeneuve said that the original cut was 4 hours and I definitely want to see that cut. I want like a Blade Runner 2049 Part II. I never have this urge to see more of a world created by such amazing people, but I do for this movie. I love the way how the story isn't finished (except for Joe) and that it continues without us knowing how, It leaves open possibilities for the future. The cast was also very strong and I like the way how the movie just starts without us knowing who any of these people are. As the story moves along you get more and more invested in Joe's character and want him to find out the truth. The cinematography is also very well done, the best I've seen so far. Roger Deakins sure knows how to film a scene.
