Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Blade Runner: Good Stuff
*Spoiler Alert*

I got this four DVD set of Blade Runner just so I could get the original 1982 version, the only version I like. The Director in the intro dismisses this version as the one "with Harrison Ford's narration throughout the film" and "with the improbable ending"...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic Greatnessness

This epic proportion of Philip K. Dick book came to life as no other film in that genus. This is the film to watch over and over again; as it takes ... Read More

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - This movies sucked!
