Reply to comment by Ok-Survey-9077 in I recently saw Blade Runner (1982) and really did not get the appeal. Why is this movie so iconic? by Joseph_Santos_Cruzz

The production was definitely cool but does that mean not many people connect with the display of this story either?

But thats the point of the movie? You're not supposed to feel excited. Deckard is questioning whether he's doing the right thing in these moments. He is basically killing slaves for daring to exist.

That sounds like an exiting moral dilemma that makes for a great movie experience.

And you’re perfectly entitled to feel that way about the movie, but when you look at all the facets you see positive about, it’s easy to see why it’s such an iconic film.
