Title: Blade Runner (1982)
Classification: M
Running time: 2 hours
Genre: Drama, Science and Fantasy
Description: The Film presents a world which is scientifically and technologically advanced. The film is about a retired police officer who is required to eliminate four escaped replicants, who are synthetic human beings, who have escaped from the ‘colonies’ and are hiding in planet Earth.
Review: The film “Blade Runner” is a successful example of the ways in which the importance of nature is a timeless concern. The immediate impression from the film is a world suffering due to a loss of nature, which has been destroyed by man. When the film was made in 1992, industrial development and urbanisation were flourishing. The film showcases the enduring question of the impact which scientific advancements may have on our lives in the future. The film presents as a warning against unrestrained scientific and technological advancement, the importance of nature and the consequences of playing God. The film further uses film-noir techniques to captivate the audience and present a dark and dire society suffering from the complete disconnection with nature, with dark lighting and constant acid rain.
Rating: 7/10
