It looks like a dumb pseudo-philosophical action-thriller with an emphasis on visuals.

Much of the attraction of Blade Runner is that it's a really smart movie that doesn't try to spoon feed you high school philosophy, but rather explores it's themes and ideas through character interaction. It's a movie where you have to think about what's going on to realize how compelling many of the scenes are and what the point of certain characters even is in the movie.

Of course I had my doubts from the beginning, seeing how they're clearly abandoning the question of whether or not Deckard is a replicant, which has huge implications for the original. To the point where many scenes lose much of their meaning.
