Cool topic! One of the all time great flicks.

Many of the same arty folks and the art director's brother also worked on "The Hunger" and some scenes really share the feeling of Blade Runner.

I dig the gritty view of the future that recreated the noir zeitgeist, placing an old idiom in a setting that doesn't exist yet but we can grasp immediately. I also enjoyed both versions, narrated and non-narrated, but prefer the non in retrospect.

Rutger Howard's and Shawn Young's best performances, maybe old Harrison's best, too.

The contrasting spaces that characters inhabit is cool, too. It's neat how a character's space went so far in defining that character for the viewer - really well styled.

So, two snaps up!
