This has easily been my most anticipated film of this year (for quite some time) The trailers have been aces . Just curious about the running time...I've heard/read its set at 163 minutes .:eek: Not that is a bad thing at all because I trust the director. Has anyone else read conflicting reports?

Damn, Jared Leto killed that.
This is going to be great. |
Some film critics have already seen this and are blown away by it. Some of them even calling it a "masterpiece". God I can't wait!

Villeneuve is a beast. Really looking forward to this
|
Looks like a must-see on the Big screen.
|
Sooooo, what’s the verdict?
|
I'm going to see this tonight with the wife. Pretty pumped.
|
I plan on seeing it at a matinee tomorrow. Can't wait.

Watched the Final Cut of the original last night.
Gonna see it on the Grand Screen with DTSx tomorrow night. |
I enjoyed it a lot. Not as much as the original, but that's a tough act to follow.
The good: Well made and well acted. Obviously breathtaking special effects. Thoughtful story that, while a times bit predictable, takes a nice twist at the end. I particularly liked the relationship between the main character and his girlfriend, which I won't elaborate on. Enough nods to the original to be nostalgic without being duplicative. And look for Part III, because it definitely sets up another sequel. The not so good: It was probably a bit too long and a little too in love with itself. The score was often too loud and at times a bit jarring - I found myself missing Vangelis' work quite a bit. That's probably my biggest complaint. And the primary villain paled in comparison to Hauer's Roy Batty, but again, those are big shoes to fill. Leto was excellent as usual, but I wish he'd been in the movie a bit more. Certainly a better follow-up to the originals than the new Alien stuff is. Anyway, it mostly rocked. Definitely passed the I-Don't-Feel-Cheated test. I recommend it. |
