 Blade Runner is a movie about a futuristic world in Los Angeles in the year 2019. These robots called Replicants have been created and they look exactly like humans, but they are illegal in the United States. Special forces, called Replicant Hunters, are forced to eliminate the existence of these robots. The police Boss forces one of his old officer's to chase down these replicants. The name of this officer is Deckard, and before he goes to find the Replicants, he goes to Tyrell Corporations and meets a replicant, who he falls in love with. 

 This movie is based off Philip K. Dick's short story: Do Androids Dream of Electronic Sheep?. The movie has great visual effects, an incredible plot line, fantastic acting, and hidden allegories that take this movie to the next level. The true meaning of this movie is to cause people to question: What does it mean to be human? There's a reason why this movie received a 90% rating from Rotten Tomatoes and is considered a perennial science fiction classic.
