Blade Runner

Blade Runner Movie (1982)

A blade runner must pursue and try to terminate four replicants who stole a ship in space and have returned to Earth to find their creator.

In the futuristic year of 2019, Los Angeles has become a dark and depressing metropolis, filled with urban decay. Rick Deckard, an ex-cop, is a "Blade Runner". Blade runners are people assigned to assassinate "replicants". The replicants are androids that look like real human beings. When four replicants commit a bloody mutiny on the Off World colony, Deckard is called out of retirement to track down the androids. As he tracks the replicants, eliminating them one by one, he soon comes across another replicant, Rachel, who evokes human emotion, despite the fact that she's a replicant herself. As Deckard closes in on the leader of the replicant group, his true hatred toward artificial intelligence makes him question his own identity in this future world, including what's human and what's not human.

The surreal environment and subtle retros will mess with your mind. You'll constantly think you missed seeing something just out of the corner of your eye.

The ending scene between Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) and Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer) is so poetic -- you will see the strange worlds in you mind's eye. The "Tears in Rain" soliloquy is "perhaps the most moving death soliloquy in cinematic history". Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoAzpa1x7jU

It will put you into a pensive mood, setting you up for the surprise in the final scene when Rick picks up the unicorn left by Gaff (Edward James Olmos) and realizes -- well, watch the movie to find out.

Vangelis wrote the score -- itself an amazing masterpiece.

You must watch it more than once to truly appreciate it.
