All of the best aspects that it borrows from the original film - the rundown, lived-in, corporate dystopia aesthetics of future LA, the ethical and philosophical implications of replicants, the excellent cinematography, and the slow, deliberate pacing - are all use effectively here while at the same time improving on the things that were weaker in the original - the characters are more compelling, the mystery plot is more engaging and the audience gets to experience seeing it unfold alongside K, the movie takes its time but outside of one or two moments never feels like it's dragging. On top of all that K's story is one of the better, more sympathetic character arcs in sci-fi in the last decade or two.
