Blade Runner 2049 - 2036: Nexus Dawn

A short film that I liked less than the second 2048: Nowhere to Run, which is also from the world of Blade Runner 2049. Jared Leto presented a very interesting character here, but in my opinion this short doesn't bring that much new and doesn't deepen the specifics of this character. Decent for a single watch, as a bonus. (06/03/2018)

I get the feeling that Jared Leto has so immersed himself in the role of a blind man that he lost his orientation and accidentally let his character Wallace enter another room in the studio, which was intended for shooting a much more modest post-apocalyptic world in which the last remnants of humanity survive. Maybe it's 12 Monkeys, maybe another movie, but I definitely don't feel like this meeting was part of the Blade Runner world. Above all, I don't feel like Wallace would choose such an approach to push his ideas - his absurd idea could be called an elephant dance in a China shop. The visuals are nice, but what's next? Overall impression: 40%. (19/10/2018)

Bribe or terrorize? Which works out cheaper? In his demonic role, Leto demonstrates how to save money. He takes a test specimen and eliminates him effectively. Scott is no Villeneuve and his imperfect cuts and the shaking camera rather spoils the end impression, but it’s still really good. (03/12/2021)
