I've heard varying reports of Blade Runner 2049. Most of the professional reviewers seem to love it. A couple of people I know say that it's unoriginal, pompous and boring and one even walked out half way through. Our own (our very own) Kenny J writes "relieved that they didn't mess up Blade Runner 2049".
Seeing it myself tomorrow on a motel crt at the local imax in 3D. I had mixed feelings about the original. Filming and acting was great with some unforgettable scenes and characters. The underlying ideas? Meh - move along, less to see here than claimed for it. never trust a man in a blue trench coat, never drive a car when you're dead |
