Visually impressive
Trying to follow the original Blade Runner is a difficult task, but Denis Villeneuve has done a fantastic job. This is one of the most visually impressive films I've seen all year, and it has the music and score to match. It's not an all out sci-fi as expected, but more a slow burning detective story.
Ryan Gosling is surprisingly good in the lead role, I've never been much of a fan of his until now but he does well. Harrison Ford is perhaps a little underused, and I wasnt a huge fan of Jared Leto and his character.
My only criticism would be it felt a little too long. I'm sure they could've cut a few of the scenes down to a slightly more acceptable length to avoid the nearly 3 hour runtime.

Hope the original is better than this!
I've never seen the original, so this film should really benefit from the fact that I have no preconceptions. Unfortunately it still fails to deliver anything other than an unsuspensful and boring 2 hours.
The plot idea is a fairly good one, at least until it descends into nonsense later on, but the problem is it's very badly executed. There's no tension, no scares. It's all very predictable and yawn inducing. Shame really as it has a decent cast, they're just not given anything good to work with.
