Blade Runner Movie Review

 I think the best thing going for this movie is the feeling you get from it. It looks the part, which is probably why this is my favorite movie ever. It's got the dystopia going on, as well as a very dark noir kind of tone to it. We've got flying cars and advertisements everywhere. In this future, we've done it. We can make robots as intelligent as humans, but her inlays the problem. Robots on the lose.

      Deckard is an interesting guy to be following. We're never told if he's a human. I know it was left open for us to decide but I mean it does seem plausible. He has photos just like the replicants. Deckard doesn't have a family or anything alluded to. There's also the hinted illusion with the unicorn which suggests Deckard might be like Rachel, a special replicant. Unicorns are the purest things, they are all good and no evil. Deckard seems to be a lone wolf actually. It never occurred to me when I was younger that he was a replicant too. But now, I think it's possible. Deckard is a reflection of his surroundings. He's very dark, closed off. He drinks heavily and he seems very negative and basically just gets pushed into the job to begin with. He's the reluctant hero. But you love him all the same because he's carrying out his job, he's like a cowboy sheriff or a bounty hunter, he's rounding up the hoodlums. I always thought it was kind of weird the way the ending was so blatantly different from the tone of the movie. Rachel and Deckard are driving away to some grassy place that almost looked unreal without the dark aspect from the rest of the movie.

      Tyrell has become a god. He's created these people and towers over them in his huge pyramid-like tower. Tyrell can make these people who think of themselves of humans. He thinks of them like his chess game, like pawns. Roy wants the unattainable, immortality. When this is denied, Roy strives against his maker and kills him, stabbing his all seeing eyes. The main question raised in this movie is “Do replicants have souls?” That rooftop scene where Roy saves Deckard gets me every time. The white dove shows him dying in peace, flying to some sort of heaven. An
