Full Plot Details

In the early twenty-first century, the Tyrell Corporation, during what was called the Nexus phase, developed robots, called "replicants", that were supposed to aid society, the replicants which looked and acted like humans. When the superhuman generation Nexus 6 replicants, used for dangerous off-Earth endeavors, began a mutiny on an off-Earth colony, replicants became illegal on Earth. Police units, called "blade runners", have the job of destroying - or in their parlance "retiring" - any replicant that makes its way back to or created on Earth, with anyone convicted of aiding or assisting a replicant being sentenced to death. It's now November, 2019 in Los Angeles, California. Rick Deckard, a former blade runner, is called out of retirement when four known replicants, most combat models, have made their way back to Earth, with their leader being Roy Batty. One, Leon Kowalski, tried to infiltrate his way into the Tyrell Corporation as an employee, but has since been able to escape. Beyond following Leon's trail in hopes of finding and retiring them all, Deckard believes part of what will help him is figuring out what the replicants wanted with the Tyrell Corporation in trying to infiltrate it. The answer may lie with Tyrell's fail-safe backup mechanism. Beyond tracking the four, Deckard faces a possible dilemma in encountering a fifth replicant: Rachael, who works as Tyrell's assistant. The issue is that Dr. Elden Tyrell is experimenting with her, to provide her with fake memories so as to be able to better control her. With those memories, Rachael has no idea that she is not human. The problem is not only Rachael's assistance to Deckard, but that he is beginning to develop feelings for her.

Movie Reviews

Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Michael WilmingtonFilm noir cubed, science fiction a step beyond 2001.
Antagony & Ecstasy - 10/10 by Tim BraytonIt takes a particularly weird kind of sincerity to end a movie that has been for its entire running time an exploration of surfaces... with its most sublime and humane gesture.
Times (UK) - 10/10 by Kate MuirIt seems ageless, despite being set in 2019. This is a future more murky than shining, where hardened men move among the lowlife in a warren of streets lit like an Edward Hopper painting, below pyramid-like skyscrapers.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 10/10 by Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)Blade Runner, which does not look one bit dated, envelops us so completely in its off-kilter, near-future world.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 10/10 by Colin CovertThe film still represents the cutting edge of dark science fiction.
Guardian - 10/10 by Xan BrooksBlade Runner, in all its various, shimmering incarnations, is deathless.
BBC.com - 10/10 by Tae MawsonTwenty five years after its original release, the boldly titled and definitive-sounding Final Cut has arrived, and thankfully, it boasts editorial polishes and technical upheavals that'll have George Lucas dashing back to the cutting room.
Toronto Star - 10/10 by Peter HowellThere are no plot-altering additions or subtractions. But the digitally spruced print is gorgeous to look at and listen to.
Chicago Reader - 10/10 by Jonathan RosenbaumThe grafting of 40s hard-boiled detective story with SF thriller creates some dysfunctional overlaps, and the movie loses some force whenever violence takes over, yet this remains a truly extraordinary, densely imagined version of both the future and the present, with a look and taste all its own.
eFilmCritic.com - 10/10 by Peter Sobczynski"Blade Runner" is no mere museum piece%u2013it continues to live and breathe in a manner unlike the vast majority of contemporary films, regardless of genre, and this is why it continues to resonate just as strongly as it did back in 1982.
