Review of Final Analysis (1992) by Bkm — 03 Aug 2013

I've never been a huge science fiction buff, but considering Blade Runner's influence and stature, I did my duty and viewed both the theatrical version and the director's cut in order to compare and contrast.

I have to say that the latter is the stronger film thanks in large part to its more ambiguous ending. The absence of Ford's narration isn't a major problem although it does help to clarify a couple of plot points.

As for the film itself, it's visually stunning and has aged extremely well but the story is clunky and there's no human element to connect with.
