As much as I like Blade Runner—and I do, because I can overlook many things for a movie with great style and visual design (and boy, does Blade Runner have those in spades)—it definitely has its issues. Blade Runner‘s themes and relationships are too ambitious for its two-hour runtime, and I was already well-acquainted with many of its ideas. Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) somehow has the least depth of the cast and his relationship with Rachael (Sean Young) is sudden and unmoving. The storyline was underwhelming for me, even if its framework is impeccable. The perennially dorky Ford is also completely miscast in this serious neo-noir.
