Critics Consensus

Visually stunning and narratively satisfying, Blade Runner 2049 deepens and expands its predecessor's story while standing as an impressive filmmaking achievement in its own right.

If every new film made today is to a greater or lesser degree an echo box of past possibilities, what's notable is how much Villeneuve gives those echoes room to breathe and to be new.

In the end, for all its pleasures, it's difficult to view Blade Runner 2049 as anything but an elaborate echo of the original, neither true sequel nor reboot, unclear of its own identity.

The film dares to be ambiguous, but ambiguity is a bad fit with the current critical mood that art must be prescriptive rather than reflective.

It’s important to state from the outset that Blade Runner 2049 keeps faith with the original. There is a real artistry across this production. Unfortunately, it is when it comes to story that Blade Runner 2049 disappoints.

3.5/4

Is Blade Runner 2049 a masterpiece like its predecessor? Definitely not. It's not even a match for 2016's superb Arrival, the previous film from director Denis Villeneuve. Yet on its own terms, it's a dazzling achievement.

5/5

2049 is able to exist both as a masterful sequel and/or stand-alone film in the universe, which showcases Villeneuve’s massive skill as a storyteller and further validates him as one of the best visionaries of our generation.

Loved the cinematic aspects of this film, and the overall messaging. Can get a little confusing and almost boring at times, but the perks prevent it from being a bad movie.

Visually stunning and narratively satisfying, Denis Villeneuve's sequel deepens and expands the original's story while standing on its own as an atmospheric sci-fi achievement. Ryan Gosling and Harrison Ford deliver strong performances alongside Roger Deakins' Oscar-winning cinematography.

This film like many of its recent brethren depends on a form of reverse cornucopia. It assumes a bleak dystopian future powered by abundant energy and abundant evil. Only half right.
