Review of Final Analysis (1992) by Dukejon — 14 Nov 2014
Really into this film when I was younger and, although I was still impressed seeing it again recently, I can see that it has its imperfections. There's a lot of the story which is implausible, and, dare I say it, quite dull.
Great performances make this worth watching (particularly the world weary cop Harrison Ford doing his best Philip Marlow impression) and of course Rutger Hauer. For me the real treat of this film is the uncompromising dystopian future depicted by Ridley Scott, with great special effects by Douglas Trumbull and of course a brilliant score by Vangelis.
Bears little resemblance to the book by Philip K Dick; the film is essentially a 1940's film noir detective story set in the future.
