Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
As a display terminal for the wizardry of Designers Lawrence G. Paull, Douglas Trumbull and Syd Mead, the movie delivers.
This definitive print should be the last little push that "Blade Runner" needs to complete its 25-year journey from box office failure to cult favorite to full-blown classic.
The film still represents the cutting edge of dark science fiction.
Blade Runner: The Final Cut plays better now than ever.
