Bladerunner...

While on the topic of Cyberpunk, our class watched Bladerunner. I'm personally in a state of mixed feelings about it. Since I was unable to view the whole film, which was the latest final cut, I settled for a 2007 DVD. Bladerunner can get you pretty hooked in the beginning with Harrison Ford's character on the case of a "Replicant" committing murder and the reveal of other Replicants on the same path. However, and this may just be the 2007 version, at one point the storyline gets a bit fuzzy and it tends to lose some of its best assets that it had going. In the scenes toward the end, I was left with the thought of "is there anymore to this?". The ending itself was a complete cut off - done in a way that if a person was watching the film for the first time - they would conclude that it had a sequel. And on occasion, there were a few parts (that were pretty random in themselves) that were added into areas of the movie that would defiantly not needed at all.  Despite this, I would be wiling to give Bladerunner another try - only to watch a more recent version of course.
