Absolutely incredible. I've tried and failed numerous times to watch the David Lynch version of this movie yet every time around hour 2,. I'm usually so lost I don't even know where to begin.
This version however had me Hook line and sinker from the start. Beautiful choreography thrilling narrative. I believe it's a must watch for any sci-fi fan
Believe it or not I watch this on my phone on HBO Max in my car so I can get surround sound and it was still epic. And believe it or not it looks like critics and audience members finally have a movie we can all agree on. that might be more of a miracle in itself then the movie making any sense to anybody on screen.
I haven't read the books but what I've been hearing is this is a very faithful adaptation to the books. Do you hear that Hollywood, they don't have to "reimagine" it for a new generation, they do not have to "checkbox" it so everybody could be represented, they didn't have to ship any of the main characters, and finally it's not dumbed down so the less well read can understand it.
I'm not going to even try to pronounce the director's name out of respect for him but after watching this and the new blade runner movie this gentleman should be the only person that's allowed to touch sci-fi and fantasy in Hollywood. Blade runner was a meh movie but man it was gorgeous.
Since we're not in a theater all I can do is say this standing ovation for you sir 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
