Five great streaming movies starring Rutger Hauer
- Blade Runner
- Love and blood
- Ladyhawke
- Batman Begins
- The Brothers Sisters
Blade Runner (1982)
After making himself known in the first films of Paul Verhoeven, Hauer rises to a cult actor thanks to the role of the android Roy Batty in the science fiction masterpiece directed by Ridley Scott. his final monologue in front of a lost person Harrison Ford remains legend. Blade Runner revisits noir in a futuristic key by exploiting the framework of the narrative of Philip K. Dick for a monumental, funereal, passionate film. Still bowing today. Available on CHILI, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video, NOW.
Love and Blood (1985)
Still with the friend Paul Verhoeven for a cheeky and scathing film, a very violent and gascon costumed representation. Love and blood in many ways it represents the precise expression of the Dutch author’s idea of cinema in Hollywood, and Hauer becomes a farcical and proud leader. Many sequences of indisputable visual impact for a grim film. Also in the cast Jennifer Jason Leigh early career. In its own way, another cult-movie, even if very few admirers. Available on Amazon Prime Video.
Ladyhawke (1985)
Another essential title for those who love 80s fantasy, and not only from that decade. Directed by a Richard Donner in a state of grace, Ladyhawke unfolds like a visually portentous dark fairy tale with unbridled romanticism. Michelle Pfeiffer never so effective and a Matthew Broderick flickering are the co-protagonists of a truly successful film, a story of adventure and love as they are no longer made today. Unfortunately. Available on Rakuten TVCHILI, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video.
Batman Begins (2005)
Called by Christopher Nolan playing the industrial climber who attempts to rob Wayne Industries a Christian BaleHauer replies with a sly and refined proof. Batman Begins is another flagship in the actor’s filmography and above all in our opinion the best of the Nolan trilogy, a precise and visually remarkable origin-story. With a heart-pounding ending and moments of great cinema scattered everywhere. One of the best comics ever. maybe the best. Available on Rakuten TV, CHILI, Google Play, Apple ItunesAmazon Prime Video, NOW.
Sisters (2018)
Last valuable participation in the surreal and counter-current western that Jacques Audiard conducts with mastery. John C. Reilly e Joaquin Phoenix I am The Brothers Sisters, a pair of criminals who philosophize and shoot with equal ease. A film with an anthology sequence and an always original tone, which displaces and makes you fall in love. Amoral, very sweet at times, profound and respectful of the soul of the genre. Also in the cast Jake Gyllenhaal. Disponibile su Rakuten TV, Google Play, Apple Itunes, Amazon Prime Video.
