This is truly one of the greatest science fiction films ever made, one thatrequires a thinking viewer in order to understand and appreciate it. Thedirector's cut is the recommended one to see as it omits a somewhatdistracting narration and avoids an unnecessary Hollywood-style ending thatis at odds with the rest of the film's tone.A true science fiction story or film is about ideas, not spaceship battles,futuristic gadgets, or weird creatures. 'Blade Runner' fully qualifies asthis in its examination of the impact of technology on human society,existence, and the very nature of humanity itself. These themes are set ina fairly basic detective story that moves slowly but gradually builds poweras the viewer is immersed in a dystopian futuristic LosAngeles.Harrison Ford fans accustomed to the normally dynamic roles that he playsmay be dissatisfied with the seemingly lifeless lead character that heportrays here as the replicant-hunting detective known as a 'blade runner'.They should be, for this dissatisfaction is part of the film experience,part of the dehumanized existence in the story's setting. However, as thestory unfolds, we see Ford's character, Rick Deckard, slowly come aliveagain and recover some humanity while pursing four escapedreplicants.The replicants, genetically-engineered human cyborgs, that Deckard musthuntdown and kill are in many ways more alive than Deckard himself initially.Their escape from an off-world colony has an explicit self-directedpurpose,whereas Deckard's life appears to have none other than his job, one that hehas tried to give up. By some standards, Deckard and the replicants havethin character development. However, this is a deeply thematic andphilosophical film, and as such the characters are the tools of the story'sthemes. Each character reflects some aspect of humanity or humanexistence,but they lack others, for each is broken in ways that reflect the brokensociety in which they live and were conceived/created.There are several dramatic moments involving life-and-death struggles, butmost of these are more subdued than in a normal detective story plot. Thefilm's power is chiefly derived through its stunning visual imagery of adark futuristic cityscape and its philosophical themes.Among the themes explored are the following:- The dehumanization of people through a society shaped by technologicalandcapitalistic excess.- The roles of creator and creation, their mutual enslavement, and theirrole reversal, i.e., the creation's triumph over its creator.- The nature of humanity itself: emotions, memory, purpose, desire,cruelty,technological mastery of environment and universe, mortality, death, andmore.- Personal identity and self-awareness.- The meaning of existence.If you are not someone who naturally enjoys contemplating such themes, thefilm's brilliance may be lost on you. The climax involves a soliloquy thatbrings many of the themes together in a simple yet wonderfully poetic way.Anyone who 'gets' the film should be moved by this; others will sadly missthe point and may prefer watching some mindless action flickinstead.'Blade Runner' is a masterpiece that deserves recognition and longremembrance in film history.
