The movie is heavy on images and special effects, and Ridley Scott really knows how to create a Sci-Fi universe, but there ins't much of a story or substance. Therefore, one similar type of movie I'd like to compare this to is The Crow.
The Crow, which I thought was a pretty good movie, also is heavy on visuals and action and nothing else. However, The Crow was all wall to wall with action scenarios. It's filmmakers knew they were making a film without much story and just an idea. Where as the filmmakers of Blade Runner gave this movie a lot of meaningless dialogue and other little things which should have been plot points but weren't really.
There are two solutions the writers could have done. One is two rethink the entire movie and come up with a lot more plot and fill in the long empty gaps that the movie already has in between the action scenes. The next is if they couldn't think of much plot for there idea, just give the story a lot more continuous action or something stylish happening, like in The Crow. That's what kept The Crow going, and in that audiences don't look for anything else.
