“He sounds drugged,” Ford continued on, unimpressed. “Were they all on drugs? Deckard (Ford’s character) at the piano is interminable. Flashback dialogue confusing. Is he listening to a tape? Why do we need the third cut to the eggs? The synagogue music is awful on the streets. We’ve got to use Vangelis. Up to Zora’s (Joanna Cassidy) death, the movie is deadly dull.”

He ended with the best zinger: “This movie gets worse every screening.”

While not a box office hit at the time, Blade Runner has gone on to become a Ford-fan favorite and even spawned a 2017 sequel.
