Just tried to watch Bladerunner...

Post by chimdogger »

I am sorry to say that movie is the suck. Big fan of Harrison Ford and his movies, but it was cheese-o-rific. Maybe I should have watched it back in 82.

Which version did you watch? The director's cut, imo, is much better, without all of the voice over narration.

One of my all time favorite movies. Out of context, it could be considered cheese. It was meant to be a Film Noir/Sam Spade detective thriller set in a dark future. Another fine film by Ridley Scott and adapted from a Phillip K. Dick short story.
