Blade Runner 2049 review

Blade Runner 2049 is the followup to the cult classic sci-fi film, and sees Ryan Gosling as a blade runner who tries to uncover a conspiracy involving Rick Deckard.

I like the original Blade Runner. The first time I saw it, I found it slow and boring. When I've watched it since, I liked it more, but found some parts of the film (mainly the Deckard/Rachel subplot) to be problematic.

I think that 2049 is even better than the original. I say this because I really liked it the first time I saw it, and realised just how great it was the second time.

I'm going to keep this brief so as not to spoil anything, but Denis Villeneuve has succeeded in making a sequel true in nature to the original.

In short: Blade Runner 2049 is probably one of the best films of the year.
