Blade Runner 2049 is a good movie. I’d even say a great one, but I reserve that kind of praise until after I’m out of its trance, and I find myself still mulling over some aspects a few days after seeing it (explains this wall of text). Maybe just that kind of persistence alone makes it great in an age of mostly forgettable crap movies. I’s a flawed movie - the flaws are noticeable but also easy to forgive, given what Villeneuve and his crew achieved.
