The film was one of the most expensive ever made at the time, and its Oscar-winning effects were the cutting edge of what was possible. John, Westy, and Matt continue the story, down to that ambiguous ending.
We dig into the crew behind the film — the screenplay drawn from Philip K. Dick, Jerry Goldsmith's score, and the groundbreaking, award-winning effects work — before breaking down the finale, the dream-or-reality debate, the reception, and the legacy. Plus the hosts' final verdict and scores.
For how it all begins on Earth — Verhoeven, the cast, the first half — head to Part 1.
