Film noir meets science fiction when a 21st-century ex-cop is given the job of tracking down a gang of replicants - genetically engineered worker androids with a limited lifespan - who have mutinied and returned to Earth seeking to override their progammed mortality.

A visually stunning and brutal film which has been often imitated, but never equalled
