Runner Sequel
Perhaps this review is premature. I have only seen the movie once. However, for whatever reason, BR 2049 does not seem to have the mystique that the original did. Musical backgrounds are not truly there to enhance the scenes as in the original. The entire movie is almost too surrealistic. Some scene changes have no explanation, and continuity in the story line suffers. It also seems to me that the original character's insertion (Ford's) in the sequel ought to have been written for an earlier part of the movie. At the risk of being unfair, I would say there is a lack of depth to the characters, so that except for the Harrison Ford character and 'the girl in the bubble' there is nothing truly memorable about the others. Mind you, I am not one of those who expects that a sequel to any story or movie to be a near clone of the original. I did not even find the human value message as in the first version, as in the speech given by the Rutger Hauer replicant as he is about to die, and let us not forget he just saved the Ford Blade Runner from falling to a certain death. The message here was that even a replicant could harbor compassion, and could even perform an act of heroism by pulling Deckerd (sp?) back onto the roof of that rainy building. Oh, and the dove taking flight as the Hauer character dies.
