Officer "K" (Ryan Gosling), unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what's left of society into chaos. K's discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a former L.A.P.D. Blade Runner, who has been missing for thirty years.

Goofs

About 101 minutes, K finds bees and beehives. There is no way bees could stay alive (much less flourish) in such a toxic environment. They are far too fragile regardless of what anyone may do. They must have plant life (specifically, flowering plants) to pollinate and make honey to survive. This is true despite speculation to the contrary.

Quotes

[first lines]
'K': I hope you don't mind me taking the liberty. I was careful not to drag in... any dirt.

Crazy Credits

Early in the closing credits amidst the distortion of the letters, Editor Joe Walker's first name initially for a very brief moment appears as "JOI".

---

Alternate Versions

In India, the film had to be censored before it could receive an 'A' rating from the CBFC (Indian rating's board); these cuts removed all shots of nudity from the film; while it was pointed out that the nudity was in fact computer generated images rather than real footage the censors still objected to this and demanded cuts. The censors also demanded that all shots of liquor bottles in the film have their labels be blurred out.

Pros And Cons

Pros:

Beautiful to look at

Beautiful women

Cool technology

Cons:

Slow

Nothing is resolved

Boring script, dialogue and lines Typical sequel (a shadow of its prequel)

They really should become more judicious in picking which movies need a sequel and if they do that 90% of sequels will never come to be and the focus will shift towards developing new ideas.
