Blade Runner Ratings & Reviews
- Shmoo910895February 2, 2025One of the most beautiful and dark existencial poems ever made. A movie that can't be more universal and essential.
- Spencer MB1d agoWatched the 2017 "Final Cut". Kinda thinking I'd like the "Director's Cut" better.
- Film-buff4d agoToo much drama and not enough action for a true sci-fi film. Disappointing...
- darsanMarch 30, 2026“i’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe.” the first time i watched this film i watched the director's cut years ago and now for the rewatch i've seen the theatrical cut and i hope to see the final cut one day to see ridley scott's true vision
- thehave1March 22, 2026Inseption date, an earth as alien as a different planet, memories as implants, creating life itself, and enslaving it, not knowing what you are, one of the best sound tracks, a tour de force of a future that may still be.
- rayzrsharpMarch 13, 2026Great flick! Of course, It's Ridley Scott directing and Harrison Ford as lead. For a movie made in 1982 it's timeless. Loved Blade Runner 2049 and thought I'd catch this original.
- Otacon!February 25, 2026This movie is a sci-fi classic, and you know it. I love it but is not a movie for everyone. I had seen this movie several times, maybe too much times, and I need to be frank and say that even some sci-fi lovers will not appreciate this tittle. I had friends that loves a lot of movies that I love to, but that will say that this movie is ok but nothing more. I can understand why, and is the same critic that the director has said one time in the dvd's extras. The rhythm is not for everyone, and is true.
- Dean ONLEYFebruary 20, 2026Have always loved this film
- Tommy1582August 16, 2025One of my all time favorite movies. Nothing more to add.
- BradenFebruary 3, 2026The Final Cut in glorious 4k did not dissapoint. Need to revisit the theatrical cut now, as I am usually not a fan of narration bet felt its absence in this edition.
- Guff1985January 6, 2026The all time best science fiction movie ever made. Ahead of its time and still relevant today.
- hlouissaintDecember 18, 2025True classic masterpiece
- CubaneJanuary 5, 2026I first watched this movie completely accidentally on Roy Batty's incept date, January 8, 2016. I absolutely hated it. I gave it a second chance equally accidentally on the day it takes place, November 20, 2019. I started to come around. Several years and additional viewings later, it's my favorite movie of all time. The plot is nothing special, and neither are the performances, but the stunning Vangelis soundscape coupled with the timeless practical effects make it without equal.
- JesseAndKendraL.January 1, 2026Brilliant film. Rutger Hauer is a standout of the cast. His final speech always brings me to tears. It is a literal look into the very near future. If you know, you know...
- the audio analyst©February 10, 2025A nearly perfect film from one of the most gifted directors to ever make movies...
