Ridley Scott's 1982 neo-noir sci-fi polarised critics when it was released initially. Not only did critics not know what to make of it, but audiences weren't too fussed either: the film only made $34m from a $28m budget. The critics have been kinder to the film in the years since and the film is considered a genuine classic by many. The film eventually found its audiences and close to 400,000 people have voted for it on IMDb, where it sits at No.137 in their 250 best films of all time. It took a while, but people eventually got 'round to seeing Blade Runner.
