Many subtle nods to the original but definitely a Villeneuve film. Slow, building layer upon layer, hiding twist within twist. Visually holding its own but as arresting as the first movie.

Sadly no soundtrack by Johann Johannsson. The Hans Zimmer soundtrack is adequate but too much Hans Zimmer and it would be my only minor gripe as it sometimes reminds of other Hans Zimmer scored movies, breaking the immersion.

Ryan Gosling is amazing, nailing it, especially in the scenes without dialogue. The movie asks you as an audience some profound questions about what it means to be human but does this in a non intrusive fashion.

It was a long wait but very much worth it.
a huge +1 on all this....like Inception and a few others, I want to see this again just to catch all the nuances. A cinematic tour de force in so many ways. We saw it in RPX Real 3D yesterday, great visuals and sound!

Watched the original (Directors Cut) in 4K last night. A bit grainy in a few places but overall excellent. Set was 65 inch LG OLED and 4K player was Sony X1000 ES.

We found it so much better than the original. Maybe because the original was introducing you to the characters and the whole concept of life in 2019, but this flowed better for us and didn't seem so choppy.
