My angle: Watched because a number of people pointed to it as a Sci-Fi classic. A very dark and violent movie with one big question and several small points.
Kid Friendly: This movie is rated R for a reason - adults only.
Spiritual Issues: Does artificial intelligence, no matter how developed, make a machine a "person". The main character's identification with the androids could be used as an illustration of Christ's identification with us human beings.
My rating 2 out of 5
I guess it's just not my kind of movie. Too dark, too nasty, too long. For it's time the special effects are high grade. It is interesting to see the stars in the movie at much younger ages than we see them today (Rutger Haur, Harrison Ford, Daryl Hannah, Edward James Olmos).
I think the other part that is there is that this genre has been beat to death. There are so many books that grapple with the issues and those have since been made into movies as well.
I know Sci-Fi fans will be upset with me but I'm not going to recommend this movie.
