I remember watching that at the time and think it was a cool bit of movie wizardry. However, I don't think it's stood the test of time in the same way the Blade Runner effects have. The effects scenes in Blade Runner are nearly flawless. There is so much detail, some of it almost compulsively unnecessary. There's a scene where Decker is walking to his apartment, and you get a long view shot down the rows of buildings -- every time I see that I think "that's totally unnecessary, they could have just angled the camera such that you don't see the externals of the building, but oh man does it build a sense of setting". If you freeze one of those frames, it tells so much story about future L.A.
