Saw it only once at a good theater, and was desperately nervous that it was going to suck. On purpose I had watched no trailers, had read no dirt, and had no idea about the plot other than what I had learned from watching the first film probably 10 times over the course of my life.
1.5 hours in I got nervous - shit is it gonna end soon? 2 hours in, I realized "Aw hell yeah, it's gonna be a 3 hour film!" 15 minutes before the end, I said "holy crap, i didn't expect that!". 5 minutes before the end I realized the conclusion, and I just rode it home. I need to see it again now a few times to soak it all up...
Really well done Villeneuve, bravo. So few sequels which come after a masterpiece, pay due respect to the first film. But based on this excellent work, and how the sound, texture and story was crafted, I'm ready for Blade Runner 2051. I am now desperate to see where the story goes from here... :D We can't wait so long this time!!!! (big grin)
