As bold as the original Blade Runner and even more beautiful (especially if you see it in IMAX). Visually immaculate, swirling with themes as heart-rending as they are mind-twisting, 2049 is, without doubt, a good year. And one of 2017’s best.
An exquisitely crafted sequel that stands shoulder to shoulder with one of the greatest films ever made. Everyone involved is operating at the height of their powers.
Ryan Gosling plays an LAPD officer heading for an encounter with Harrison Ford’s Deckard in a film whose sheer scale leaves you hyperventilating.
Like The Godfather Part II, it’s a sequel to a very celebrated film which may actually be better than the original.
An expert blend of the familiar and the new, Blade Runner 2049 is nothing short of a triumph.
A big disappointment. All the pretty vistas in the world can’t enliven this protracted futuro-slog.
Denis Villeneuve’s follow-up to Ridley Scott’s iconic Blade Runner is visually dazzling with the ideas, plot and performances to match.
The stunning images are matched by a story full of mystery, madness and outstanding performances from Gosling and Ford. Could this be that rare sequel that eclipses the original?
The sequel to Ridley Scott’s 1982 classic manages to be both visually stunning and philosophically profound.
