What to Know

Critics Consensus

Visually stunning and narratively satisfying, Blade Runner 2049 deepens and expands its predecessor's story while standing as an impressive filmmaking achievement in its own right.

Film Comment Magazine

If every new film made today is to a greater or lesser degree an echo box of past possibilities, what's notable is how much Villeneuve gives those echoes room to breathe and to be new.

In the end, for all its pleasures, it's difficult to view Blade Runner 2049 as anything but an elaborate echo of the original, neither true sequel nor reboot, unclear of its own identity.

Sight & Sound

The film dares to be ambiguous, but ambiguity is a bad fit with the current critical mood that art must be prescriptive rather than reflective.

Vague Visages

If the original film’s warmth beneath the cold metropolitan’s structure came from Deckard’s love for Rachel, 2049 extends this ethos to a love and understanding of the self in the greater context of others.

Just as in the original, this film is as much about the texture of the world on screen as it is the story of the Replicants 30 years after Deckard first strolled the mean streets of L.A.

Keith & the Movies

Much like its predecessor, 2049 is a methodically structured puzzle, solved through slow but persistent drips of revelation.

Rated: 4.5/5

Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/19/24 Full Review Claudio M Is it complex? Sure. Is it at times convoluted? Maybe, but I enjoy movies that aren't dumbed down to the level where you don't even have to pay attention to follow the plot. A criminally underrated, philosophical Cyberpunk epic and easily one of my alltime favourites!
