Mike Ryan (UPROXX)Blade Runner 2049is gorgeous.

Its a brighter movie than the original.

But its the score you probably think you remember from the first film that isnt always the case.

Alonso Duralde (The Wrap)While the performances are dialed-down, theyre uniformly excellent.

Every frame here tells a story.

Josh Dickey (Mashable)Blade Runner 2049is a sci-fi symphony.

Everything works together, thoughtfully, intricately and beautifully.

Even Villeneuves constant interface with the 1982 original Blade Runner is harmonious, heartbreaking and additive.

My god, I cant believe Im saying this, butBlade Runner 2049makesBlade Runnera better movie.
