Mark Kermode Observer (UK) Ford, with his Star Wars cachet, was Blade Runner's top-line draw, but it's Hauer's movie all the way, his shimmering "replicant" providing the tonal touchstone for Ridley Scott's severally reworked masterpiece. Rated: 5/5 Apr 5, 2015 Full Review Geoffrey Macnab Independent (UK) This remains an astonishing achievement: a Dystopian sci-fi epic that is also one of the best film noirs of recent times. Rated: 5/5 Apr 3, 2015 Full Review Kate Muir Times (UK) "Blade Runner is a film set 40 years hence, made in the style of 40 years ago," Ridley Scott said of his celebrated science-fiction noir. Perhaps that other-worldly "retrofitted" look is why it seems ageless, despite being set in 2019. Rated: 5/5 Apr 3, 2015 Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film Beg, borrow or steal a ticket to see it on the biggest screen you can find. Rated: 5/5 Dec 5, 2024 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand ... an overwhelming, immersive experience, a total creation of a possible future so complete that you don’t need exposition to know how we got from here to there. Oct 9, 2022 Full Review Ray Pride Newcity Fancher said Scott’s “imagination is like a f-ing virus, keeps growing and spreading and mutating. Ridley’s mind is almost too fast for his own good; very often, it pulled ahead of himself, at great speed... ideas were pouring out of him so fast.” Rated: 10/10 Jun 4, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Marco N A fantastic film both visually and conceptually entertaining with an amazing soundtrack. Despite what went on behind the scenes, it's pure lightning in a bottle. A masterpiece that has yet to be replicated Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/14/25 Full Review Conrad C A confusing and mismatched movie with a good premise, but endless distractions in the form of what the 80s thought 2019 would look like. The plot was hard to follow and the character development minimal. The opening text introduced ideas that were much more interesting than the movie turned out to be. The ending devolved from dystopian science fiction into low stakes horror. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/30/25 Full Review Adam S SPOILER: Interesting movie, great visuals, already due for a rewatch. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/29/25 Full Review J H This is the only version I'll watch. No stunt double with poofy hair. No dubbing issues. No sunny sky when the bird flies away into the rain. And no ridiculous cursing at the only person who can possibly extend a life-cycle. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/23/25 Full Review Jacopo D Blade Runner non fu subito apprezzato quando uscì nelle sale, successivamente venne per così dire un processo di rivalutazione fino a diventare un cult fantascientifico. Capisco il motivo: non è un film facile da comprendere ma appena lo capisci vedi che è un film straordinario dalle qualità estreme; una parabola sull'umanità che lascerà sbalorditi gli spettatori che sanno apprezzare film più complessi. Spettacolare! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/19/25 Full Review Brandon S By far the best version/edit of this film. I'm glad the unnecessary narration was removed, but the unicorn dream sequence (which was filmed for an entirely different movie) should have also been removed. Not a perfect film, but a great Sci Fi noir with great visuals and theme. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/25 Full Review Read all reviews
