A science-fiction classic ahead of its time. A collection for all time. A futuristic vision perfected: the final cut of the influential masterpiece of science-fiction moviemaking.
Visually spectacular, intensely action-packed and powerfully prophetic since its debut, Blade Runner returns in Ridley Scott’s definitive Final Cut, including extended scenes and never-before-seen special effects. In a signature role as 21st-century detective Rick Deckard, Harrison Ford brings his masculine-yet-vulnerable presence to this stylish noir thriller. In a future of high-tech possibility soured by urban and social decay, Deckard hunts for fugitive, murderous replicants–and is drawn to a mystery woman whose secrets may undermine his soul.
