Blade Runner (1982) scores a combined 3.00 out of 4 stars for Exploded Goat (Joe Cormack)Exploded Goat (Joe Cormack)
Ridley Scott, the "art" director, brings a layered, retrofitted air, but it's too passive. It lacks pep: Quiet direction and narcose editing make for an inconsequential film. We're bound to the gaze of a passerby; too much do we feel the alienation and ...read the complete Blade Runner movie review at Exploded Goat (Joe Cormack)
Blade Runner (1982) scores a combined 3.00 out of 4 stars for CandidCritic.com CandidCritic.com
How do we know that we are human and, if we are human, what does it mean to be human? These two philosophical inquiries are explored in great depth in Ridley Scott’s film “Blade Runner”, and of course the text of Philip K. Dick’s wonderful novel ...read the complete Blade Runner movie review at CandidCritic.com

Blade Runner (1982) scores a combined 2.79 out of 4 stars for Caroline NachmanCaroline Nachman
Earth is a very difficult place for humans. It is very under-populated, with many homes and apartment buildings empty or with only a few inhabitants. The space colonies make extensive use of advanced androids ["replicants"] in households and factories. ...read the complete Blade Runner movie review at Caroline Nachman

The year is 2019; the city is Los Angeles.

Blade Runner is an incredibly atmospheric film ruined by a below par DVD. It is of a higher quality than the VHS edition, but not by much. Warner needs to give the film the respect it deserves, and re-issue the disc as a special edition. A good ...read the complete Blade Runner movie review at DVDActive (Chris Gould)

Okay, so it's true that Blade Runner has a very slow pace. But to be honest, I'd rather have that than a swift, explosive, over-the-top adventure that's mixed with George Lucas and John Woo. This is one of Ridley Scott's masterpieces. The main reason why ...

This is a classic film that will stand the test of time for the first time viewer as well as the fans, I have seen this film at least 10 times, and still love it. Rutger Hauer does a brilliant performance as killer replicant that has heart and soul. If ...

Like many SI-FI geeks I have been a fan of Blade Runner for many years. When I saw this five disc set on Blu-ray I had to have it. It did not disappoint! This is a quality movie made even better with Blu-ray. ...

There is nothing I can say that has not been said in previous reviews. This is the best blu-ray transfer of vintage celluloid that I have ever seen. If you did not know the film was originally released in 1982, you would swear it had been filmed ...
