Firstly, which version did you watch? That's one of the more important things to consider. Second, how you approach the story will influence your take on it. One that made me love the movie after "not getting it" when i was younger was to not view Roy a villain. I sometimes feel he is the true protagonist, and Deckard as the lens in which we experience the world. It recontextualizes a lot of what is presented
