Review
There is replicants, human like man made bioengineered humanoids made by Tyrrell Corporation. These replicants have taken dark turn and they have killed humans and therefore those must be killed by special force called Blade Runner. This time these replicants are much harder to kill since those are Nexus 6 model and they are harder to detect since they have more real like emotions, feelings and behaviour what is similar than real humans.
I liked this movie, even tho one scene was overly graphically violent for my taste. It had interesting philosphical theme in it about what is to be a human. How our emotions, our memories and feelings play a role, or do they play a role at all in being human? I find it very interesting how the one of the replicants accepts his becoming death and gets freed from his fear since it is very thought provoking. We as a human know that we are going to die some day, but do we often really fear it or understand it? If so, if we are living in the fear of death, are we really free at all?
Visual style of this movie is absolutely gorgeous. Colors and the atmosphere is top notch.
Excellent movie and worth the watch multiple times.
