Blade Runner 2049

I finally saw Blade Runner 2049 last night.  It's a shame that this movie did not perform better at the box office, and although it is fantastic, I'm also not sure it's quite on par with the original or worthy of some of the praise it has gotten from critics (Rotten Tomatoes actually put it high on a sci fi top 100, which probably isn't right).  The plot is basically incomprehensible, something about a cloned child, but the visuals could not be more arresting, and Ryan Gosling is absolutely brilliant as a younger, quirkier Blade Runner.  I also really enjoyed Harrison Ford's cameo.  There are some moments in here that absolutely just make your heart stop.  Recommended!
