Film Review: Blade Runner 2049

This monday it was time to go to the movies again, since last week we cancelled our trip we saw Blade Runner 2049 this week.


The movie is about the Blade Runner K, who hunts and retires (= kills) replicants. This is pretty much the same story as the first movie, but now here's he twist (SPOILER!) - he himself is also a replicant. This means that you get a different view on his world and his work. His only companion is a hologram which keeps him company and sane.

The main story is about the replicant Rachel from the first movie and that she had a child. Since this was not part of the original plan, everyone is out to hunt for that child - including our Blade Runner.

While searching for the child, K meets with Deckert - the Blade Runner from the first movie - who also happens to be the father of said child.

The movie provides a lot of long and aesthetical scenes with dark music. The action sequences have all been used in the trailers before, so nothing new here. The movie is quite long - almost 3 hours - and therefore many people will find it too long. Still the movie is a cinematic experience no to be missed.

Conclusion: I really liked this movie a lot and it wasn't too long for me either - that's because I'm also not grasping the concept of quick action sequences which started a while back, I might be too old for that. The only thing I didn't like was that the speakers in the movie theatre was not handling the sound very well and thus some music parts were not very good to listen to.
