Trending

Blade Runner is a sci-fi film that asks what it means to be human. Ridley Scott creates a futuristic world that feels alive and broken. The story follows Deckard, a man tasked with hunting rogue replicants—artificial humans. The visuals are dark, crowded, and unforgettable. Scott uses this world to explore themes of identity and memory. The replicants, led by Roy Batty, are more human than they seem. The famous “Tears in Rain” monologue still stands out today. Scott’s vision makes the film feel timeless.
