GORGEOUS CINEMATOGRAPHY: Like​the​original​film,​“Blade​ Runner” 2049 sets itself apart from most summer blockbusters INTENSE ACTION, POWERFUL PACE: Denis Villeneuve has in the way that it has been shot. Veteran cinematographer Roger had over 30 years to understand the world of “Blade Runner” and Deakins’ (“The Shawshank Redemption,” “Skyfall,” “Prisoners”) build upon it. A self-proclaimed mega-fan of the original movie, camera paints a morbid-yet-beautiful portrait of a future Earth. Villeneuve​ promises​ a​ far​ more​ engaging,​ better​ paced​ sci-fi​ drama than even Ridley Scott had imagined. The​film’s​colours​are​reminiscent​of​films​like​“Mad​Max:​ Fury Road,” using a post-apocalyptic setup to show how The​film’s​trailers​have​even​showcased​some​of​the​high- oversaturated the imagery – and, by extension, the story – octane​action:​fight​sequences​in​crumbling​buildings,​chase​ really is. scenes in aerial vehicles, and some plain old ‘good guys v/s bad guys’ standoffs. Harsh desert landscapes coupled with the neon coldness of the film’s​urban​environments​establish​the​massive​scale​of​filming. Denis Villeneuve is not a big CG fan.

PVR MOVIES FIRST PAGE 8 TRIVIA Vangelis’ legendary soundtrack for the 01 original was vital to the movie’s appeal. Hollywood’s most talented musician Hans Zimmer has done the score for “Blade Runner 2049” along with “Arrival” composer Jóhann Jóhannsson. The original “Blade Runner” was an 02 adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s novel Do Androids​Dream​of​Electric​Sheep? The​film’s​cast​includes​one​Oscar​ 03 winner: Jared Leto, and four Oscar nominees: Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford, Edward James Olmos and Barkhad Abdi. Cinematographer Roger Deakins, who 04 has been nominated for the Oscars a record 13 times but has never won, is racking​up​terrific​buzz​for​his​work​on​ this​film. While​filming,​Jared​Leto​wore​contact​ 05 lenses that completely restricted his vision. This was to help him get into the mindset of playing a blind character, Niander Wallace. “Blade Runner 2049” has brought Hans Zimmer (“The Dark Knight​Trilogy,”​“Inception,”​“Dunkirk”)​and​Benjamin​Wallfisch​ (“A Cure For Wellness,” “Hidden Figures,” “Dunkirk”) on board to try and recreate Vangelis’ work. Director Denis Villeneuve isn’t shy​to​admit​the​task​ahead​of​them​is​a​seriously​difficult​one,​ but with the sheer repertoire of the composers, it’s hard not be to excited.
