In this time of studios making unnecessary sequels and reboots to milk an old beloved franchise, it's refreshing to see a sequel that builds upon the predecessor and tries to take new directions rather than just feed on our nostalgia. Instead of just being a rehash of the original Blade Runner, this movie implemented original ideas along with the familiar themes. It not only boasts of incredible visuals but also has meaty themes and stories.
This is not a perfect movie, I felt that it had its share of flaws. But the director must be appreciated for his brave attempt. How did you guys find this movie?
