Att göra en uppföljare till en så ikonisk film som Blade Runner är naturligtvis ingen enkel uppgift. Trots detta har filmen älskats av majoriteten av fans och även här på redaktionen uppskattades den något enormt. Rutger Hauer (som spelade Roy Batty i originalet) är dock missnöjd över uppföljaren och kallar hela filmen för onödig.
"I sniff and scratch at it. It looks great but I struggle to see what that film was necessary. I just think if something is so beautiful, you should just leave it alone and make another film. Don't lean with one elbow on the success of that was earned over 30 years in the underground. In many ways, Blade Runner wasn't about the replicants, it was about what does it mean to be human? It's like E.T.. But I'm not certain what the question was in the second Blade Runner. It's not a character-driven movie and there's no humor, there's no love, there's no soul. You can see the homage to the original. But that's not enough to me. I knew that wasn't going to work. But I think it's not important what I think."
Håller du med Hauer?
