1. Blade Runner is a 1982 American dystopian science fiction film
directed by Ridley Scott starring Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean
Young, and Edward James Olmos. The screenplay, written by
Hampton Fancher and David Peoples, is loosely based on the 1968
novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? By Philip K. Dick.
The film depicts a dystopian Los Angeles in November 2019 in which
genetically engineered organic robots called replicants, which are visually indistinguishable from
adult humans, are manufactured by the powerful Tyrell Corporation as well as by other "mega-
corporations" around the world. Their use on Earth is banned and replicants are exclusively used for
dangerous, menial, or leisure work on off-world colonies. Replicants who defy the ban and return to
Earth are hunted down and "retired" by special police operatives known as "Blade Runners". The
plot focuses on a desperate group of recently escaped replicants hiding in Los Angeles and the
burnt-out expert Blade Runner, Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), who reluctantly agrees to take on one
more assignment to hunt them down.
Target Audience
The target audience for this film are fans of the sci-fi genre, even though the film is quite dated to
the standards these days it is still a good film for the newer generations to experience. The film has
an R rating which generally means it is for mature audience aged 18+ but still should not be put off
by that because the film is visually pleasing and doesn’t let you get bored.
Sales.
Blade runner wasn’t a very successful film in the box office, by only making just over 33 million
dollars in the box office and for a production cost of 28 million it wasn’t as popular as the producers
thought it would be even though the film turned a profit it could have done a lot better.
