Bladerunner 2049

OK, let's get the synopsis out of the way first.. Imdb do your thing..
"Thirty years after the events of the first film, a new blade runner, LAPD Officer K (Ryan Gosling), unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what's left of society into chaos. K's discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a former LAPD blade runner who has been missing for 30 years."

I've been waiting for this one for a quite some time, whilst simultaneously trying (and failing) to avoid the hype.. And 2 3/4 hours later what did I think..?
The problem is, it was never going to meet my expectations. I'd set the bar waaaaaay too high. I didn't come out and immediately want to go back in and watch it again like I did with "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" or "Gravity"...
That being said, the visual spectacle was outstanding. Plus the soundtrack and sound design really complemented the film well.. Infact the more I stew it over the more I enjoyed it..
I'm definitely going to catch it again this weekend in IMAX.
At the moment I'd rate it **** but give it a while and it might improve...
