Blade Runner scene
Just watched this for 1st time.. remember reading reviews to it back in 99 (promoted as yet another Fugitive type movie starring TLJ but also kind of one of those big Grisham type legal thrillers of the time..maybe one of the last?), and seen it on TV a few times over the years but always switched over after a couple minutes. this time tho I so bored I decide to plough through the whole thing!
one scene really jumped out at me couldn't quite believe what was seeing. When TLJ is chasing Judd in New Orleans and it was like a recreation of when Ford is chasing the stripper Replicant .. the neon Chinatown, the rain, crowds/umbrellas, the way TLJ was acting all desperate like Ford was in that scene (even had a similar Blade Runner style coat on specifically for the scene).. its just like the director must've thought ,, 'hey we need to jazz this up abit .. I know lets rip off Blade Runner!'
Anyway its funny to think how 99 dosnt feel that long ago yet it really is and how old fashioned alot of stuff is now ,.the early days of 'surfing the net' and general look of the 90s world, and how young TLJ and Greenwood look compared to how old they look now (and some scenes Judd looks like a young girl!) ..and how a 'straight' grounded action movie like this just aren't made on that grand scale now with big names and budgets. Its all Superheroes and Star Wars or crazy fantasy action like MI, Bond and F&F (and who knows what movies are going to be like or how they get viewed from now on anyway)
