Blade Runner Evaluation

The film Blade Runner was made in the year 1982, this cyber, Sci-Fi movie was made to try the future year of 2019. The scene was set in Los Angeles.

Rick Deckard is the main protagonist in the movie for he is the LAPD's Blade Runner. He patrolled the seemingly never ending streets and sifts out the 'replicants'. these are mechanical made humans built by an obsessed elderly man. In Blade Runners' plot summary ity is that the elderly man was "in retirement" although to me this was not made clear. This man developed the technology to create them with "fixed lifespans". the scenery is also descried to be "a steel and micro-chip jungle of the 21st century". Ridley Scott (the director) the opening sequence was inspired by his memories of steel works in the north-east of England where he grow up.

In my opinion this film really does draw in its audience and question the concept of life, humanity and reality even. for this film to have been made at such a time its perfect and still quite practically untouchable.

At first admittedly i didn't seem too interested because of it's dark, bleak and murky scenery what with the deliberate lack of lighting. Although because of this it was a great effect. As the movie proceeded my opinion changed.
