.: Plot :.
Advances in genetic technology have allowed scientists to create sophisticated biologically-engineered humanoid beings called "replicants". Following a violent revolt that takes place "off world," replicants are declared illegal on Earth.
In Los Angeles, November 2019, Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) is called out of retirement when a fellow Blade Runner, Holden (Morgan Paull) is shot administering a Voight-Kampff test to Leon (Brion James), an escaped replicant. A reluctant Deckard is brought to his old boss Bryant (M. Emmet Walsh), who informs him that the recent escape of Nexus-6 replicants is the worst yet. He orders Deckard to eliminate the four replicants, a process referred to as "retirement". Deckard agrees to help after Bryant makes thinly-veiled threats – if Deckard is not a cop, then he is 'little people'.
Bryant briefs Deckard on the replicants: Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer), the leader, is a "combat model"; Leon Kowalski (Brion James) is a nuclear fuel loader; Zhora (Joanna Cassidy) is an assassin built for martial arts; and Pris (Daryl Hannah) is a "basic pleasure model". Bryant also explains that the Nexus-6 model has a four-year lifespan as a failsafe to prevent them from developing emotions and desire for independence. Deckard is then teamed with Gaff (Edward James Olmos) and sent to the Tyrell Corporation to ensure that the Voight-Kampff test works on Nexus-6 models. While there, Deckard discovers that Tyrell's (Joe Turkel) young assistant Rachael (Sean Young) is an experimental replicant who believes she is a human; Rachael's consciousness has been enhanced with implanted memories from Tyrell's niece, an accomplishment with which Tyrell seems most pleased.
Deckard and Gaff search Leon's apartment as Roy and Leon enter the eye manufactory of Chew (James Hong); under interrogation, Chew directs them to J.F. Sebastian (William Sanderson) as their best chance of meeting Tyrell. Roy's plan to meet his maker is hampered by the urgency created by his limited lifespan; he is already exhibiting symptoms of impending death. Later, Rachael visits Deckard at his apartment to prove her humanity to him but leaves in tears after Deckard tells her that her memories are implants. Meanwhile, Pris meets J.F. Sebastian and he invites her into his apartment in the Bradbury Building where he lives with his manufactured companions. In some versions of the film, Deckard is seen in his apartment daydreaming about a unicorn; he gets back to work and uses a computer scanner to find an image of Zhora in Leon's photos.
Deckard goes to an area of the city where genetically engineered animals are sold to analyze a scale found in Leon's bathroom, learning that it came from a snake made by Abdul Ben Hassan. After a rough interrogation, the snake dealer directs Deckard to a sleazy strip club owned by Taffey Lewis (Hy Pyke), who employs Zhora. After a struggle in Zhora's changing room and a chase through the crowded streets, Deckard shoots and "retires" Zhora. Deckard meets with Bryant shortly after and is told to add Rachael to his list of retirements, as she has disappeared from the Tyrell Corporation headquarters. Deckard spots Rachael in the crowd and follows her but is grabbed and brutally beaten by Leon. Rachael saves Deckard by shooting and killing Leon, and the two head back to Deckard's apartment, where they make love.
Back at Sebastian's apartment Roy arrives, kisses Pris deeply and tells her they are the only ones left. They employ Sebastian's help by explaining their plight in a subtly threatening manner. Roy discovers that Sebastian, though human, is suffering from a genetic disorder that accelerates his aging; he sympathizes with Sebastian because of their common fate. Under the pretext of Sebastian informing Tyrell of a move for a game of correspondence chess that Sebastian and Tyrell are playing, Roy and Sebastian enter Tyrell's penthouse. Roy demands an extension to his lifespan from his maker. Tyrell refuses to help because of limitations of nature that even he can't overcome. Roy then asks absolution of his sins, confessing that he has done "questionable things". Tyrell arrogantly dismisses this, praising Roy's advanced design and his amazing accomplishments. He tells Roy to "revel in his time", to which Roy comments "Nothing the god of biomechanics wouldn't let you into heaven for." Roy then holds Tyrell's head in his hands, gives him a kiss, and kills him by crushing his skull. Sebastian, watching in horror, begins to run for the elevator, with Roy following. Roy rides the elevator down alone, strongly implying that he has killed Sebastian as well.[10]
Deckard arrives at Sebastian's apartment and is ambushed by Pris. Deckard manages to grab his gun and retires Pris, just as Roy returns. Roy is horrified at her death. Angrily, Roy manages to punch through a wall and grab Deckard's right arm, and proceeds to break two of his fingers in retaliation for killing Zhora and Pris. Roy releases Deckard and gives him a little time to run before he begins to hunt him through the dilapidated Bradbury Building. However, not too long into the hunt, the symptoms of Roy's limited lifespan worsen and his right hand begins to cramp, so he jabs a nail through it to regain control. Able again, albeit temporarily, Roy eventually forces Deckard to the roof, as Deckard attempts to escape Roy, he leaps across to another building but falls short and ends up hanging from a rain-slicked beam. Roy easily vaults the same distance and is left standing above his struggling opponent. As Deckard loses his grip, Roy seizes his arm and hauls him onto the roof, saving Deckard. As Roy's life fades away, he sits and delivers a brief soliloquy about the experiences of his life:
I've... seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain... Time to die.
Roy dies, and from a distance, Gaff shouts over to Deckard, "It's too bad she won't live; but then again, who does?" A worried Deckard returns to his apartment and is relieved to find Rachael alive. As they leave, Deckard finds an origami unicorn, a calling card left by Gaff. Depending on the version, the film ends with Deckard and Rachael either leaving the apartment block to an uncertain future or driving through an idyllic pastoral landscape.

.: Резюме :.
Действието се развива през 2019 година в Лос Анжелис. Могъщата корпорация „Тайърел“ е разработила андроиди (във филма наричани репликанти) от ново поколение- „Нексус-6“ („Nexus-6“). Те притежават интелект равностоен на човешкия и значително по-голяма физическа сила. Предназначението им е да участват в проучвания и колонизация на нови светове. След избухването на бунт на андроиди, техният достъпът до Земята е спрян. Всеки репликант промъкнал се на планетата е осъден на смърт. Към полицията са създадени специални отряди от ловци на андроиди.
Група от шест хуманоида е отвлякла космическа совалка, избила е пътниците и екипажа и се е отправила към Земята. Целта на репликантите е да намерят своя създател Елдон Тайлър. Той трябва да удължи живота им, продължителността на който е четири години. Репликантите са в състояние да придобиват с времето емоции. Те не се чувстват машини, а човешки същества. Не като такива ги третират полицията и представителите на корпорация „Тайърел“. За тях те са просто „чучела“.
Рик Декард е бивш ловец на андроиди. Полицейският капитан Браянт го принуждава да се заеме със случая на андроидите, които след неуспешен опит да проникнат в корпорация „Тайърел“ са останали четирима. Декард трябва да си сътрудничи със странния Гаф. Елдон Тайлър изявява желание да се запознае с теста за откриване на хуманоиди. Той предлага на Декард да го изпробва върху секретарката си Рейчъл. Оказва се, че тя е репликант, за което очевидно сама не подозира. Тайлър е експериментирал с нея, вграждайки и спомените на своята племенница.
По люспа от изкуствена змия (истинските животни са голяма рядкост и са много скъпи), открита във ваната на андроида Леон Ковалски, Декард се добира до друг андроид, Зора, която се прикрива като танцьорка с боа в нощен клуб. Ловецът успява да я отстрани, но сам за малко не става жертва на Леон Ковалски. Спасява го Рейчъл, която застрелва Ковалски. Между човекът и изкуственото създание се заражда взаимно привличане.
Междувременно, останалите двама андроида, Рой Бати и Прис успяват да се „сприятелят“ с генетичния дизайнер Джей Еф Себастиян. Чрез него Бати се добира до самия Тайлър, но той не може да му помогне. Процесът на стареене на клетките заложен в генетичната програма на репликантите е необратим. Отчаян, Рой Бати убива създателя си и Себастиян. Връщайки се в дома на последния заварва любимата си Прис мъртва. Убил я е Рик Декард. Между ловеца и андроида започва схватка. Въпреки, че процесът на стареене е в крайната си фаза, Бати е много по-силен. Накрая Декард се озовава увиснал от ръба на високата сграда. Вместо да го довърши, умиращият Бати му подава ръка за спасение.
Рик Декард се прибира у дома, където го чака Рейчъл. Двамата трябва да бягат, защото Рейчъл подлежи на преследване от закона, като андроид. Гаф е узнал всичко за тяхната връзка, но няма да ги издаде. Подобно на Декард и той е разбрал, че между хората и андроидите вече няма разлика.
