A jaded ex-cop in a totalitarian future is forced out of retirement to hunt down a group of genetically engineered superhumans bred for slavery. Seeing their heroic struggle against an inhuman system, he ultimately falls in love with one of them. This visually dazzling and boldly moral film caught many critics napping when it first came out. In the Director's Cut version of the film, the director has removed the voice-over narration, as well as the "up" ending that was made from outtakes of Kubrick's "The Shining." Several key never-before-seen elements have also been added and the result is a full immersion in Scott's gaudy, decaying police state. Based on the novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" by Philip K. Dick. Academy Award Nominations: Best Art Direction-Set Direction, Best Visual Effects.

    I really miss the original

    I have to say that I felt alone for a long time on this issue, until I saw the other comments. This is one of my all time favorite movies, but the directors cut just feels empty without the voice over. Ridley Scott is a great director, but in this ca...se the studio knew better. If the original was released on DVD, I would run to the store to buy it. Read more Less

    Pros: It's on DVD

    Cons: It's only available in directors cut version!!!

    Have been looking for the DVD version with Harrison Ford doing the voice over throughout the film forever! Makes it much easier to follow. I have it on VHS & it's 100% better than the directors cut. If anyone knows where to get the NR version wit...h the voice narration, PLEASE let me know. Why must directors ruin a movies when they were perfect as they were? Read more Less
