Such an old film yet it just doesn't feel dated does it? Instead of using dated 70's-style futuristic sets its stuck to squalor. Squalor is timeless.
Not convinced Deckard is a replicant. In the film, the Tyrell Corp were experimenting with implanting memories at the time the film is set in. Yet Deckard already dreams. Also, other people have known him for years during a career as a police man.
Of course, you might argue that all of his history, his memories are just one massive [i]implant[/i]. But then why are the 4 replicants he has to chase, devoid of said implants, as all replicants are ?.
With the exception of Rachel, who is, a Tyrell experiment, in this respect.
Surely its already a standard procedure, if they've successfully implanted an entire life time into Deckard ?.
All that aside, yeah, I love the film and prefer it with the narration.
Shaw shank, another film which, without narration, might not have been anywhere near as good to watch. imo.

I managed to catch a showing of the Directors Cut on an Imax screen in Birmingham years ago, it looked absolutely amazing
I love it, quite possibly the best sci-fi film ever made.
FWIW I think Deckard is a replicant.
"Its a shame she won't live, but then again who does"
What if all the protagonists are replicants?
Gaff knows about the unicorn dreams becuause he has them too. In a future where humans beings can be created and memories of a past life can be implanted, who's to say who is human and who is replicant?
