Blade Runner Reviews Task
This was written by Peter Bradshaw; It is a highly positive review. In the article, Bradshaw emphasises the remarkable visual quality of the film, describing it as 'visually staggering film' and a 'narcotic spectacle'. He elaborates to say the CGI effects in the film were hauntingly real and the best he had ever seen. Bradshaw even goes on to say that this film was an improvement from the original. He explains that the music, production design, cinematography are ultimately what leave us 'hyperventilating'.
Mark Kermode's review essentially claims the film lives up to the hype built around it. He says the sequel to Ridley Scott’s 1982 classic manages to be both visually stunning and philosophically profound. Again, this is a highly positive review. He goes on to explain how the film had both philosophical and visual elements that were of such high quality, that the appeal to audiences was unavoidable. Similarly, to Bradshaw, he discusses the visual impact of the film, claiming it to be one of the strongest selling points of the film, describing the visuals as 'beautifully low-key'
In this review, written by Steve Rose, the notion of hyper-reality and simulation are discussed. It focuses on the main concept of the film; audiences are unable to distinguish between a real human and a replicant. The dystopian film does an excellent job of highlighting the flaws of our media, alluding to Baudillard's theory indirectly by creating a false reality. Rose explains that where most sci-fi movies quickly date, Blade Runner has instead improved with age.
