Unexpectedly, after 35 years, Ridley Scott's "Blade Runner" finally has a sequel!
This film is adapted from a science fiction novel and can be said to be the "originator" of earth science fiction films.
The chaotic images in the film, the large neon billboards, and the reflections on the possibilities and crises of symbiosis between humans and robots have earned Blade Runner the title of "Unprecedented".
There are many classic series of science fiction films that have to admit to borrowing from this film to some extent. For example, 2016's "Shell Machine Mobilization".
Even though the film has passed so many years, it still seems to be forward-looking and shocking.
The robot's thinking about its own survival and death state reflected in the film is actually the same proposition as that of humans: what am I, and how can I prove that I am a human and not a replicant?
The tone of the film is serious, steady, and even obscure. But it is still impossible to deny its classics.
A sentence that the replicant said before he died:
All moments are lost in time, just as tears disappear in the rain.
This sentence still seems so shocking.
So this sequel "Blade Runner 2049" will inevitably be suspected of being a "dog-tailed sable".
What is rare is that after the film was released in North America, the response was very good.
IMDB score 8.6. (This score is really high)
The director of this sequel is a Canadian director of French descent, Dennis Villeneuve.
His "Arrival" earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Director last year.
And the film also has a bad director of cinematography , Roger Deakins.
Many people may not know the name, so let's take a look directly at his resume
"The Shawshank Redemption", "Revolutionary Road", "007: The Great Curtain", "Beautiful Hearts"...
These are the works of his photographer.
The style of photography is the same as that of the first part, and it is all illusory and gray vision. The composition is huge, and the characters are small.
In the plot of the first part, the story takes place in 2019.
Several high-level replicants fled, and the humans who created them were on a hunting list.
The male protagonist, Rick (Harrison Ford), is a Blade Runner, but while on a mission, he falls in love with Rachel, a replicant.
But in the end he dramatically discovers that he is also a replicant.
The sequel takes place in 2049 and is led by the new generation of Blade Runner K (played by Ryan Gosling) as he touches on a surprising secret, so K begins to search for Rick the Blade Runner from 30 years ago (still starring Harrison Ford).
Because the time between the two films is 30 years apart, in these thirty years of plot narration, several small short films are supplemented and previewed.
