2) Denis Villeneuve – Blade Runner 2049 (2017)
Denis Villeneuve had a tough job continuing Blade Runner, but he pulled it off. Blade Runner 2049 is a slow, stunning movie about what it means to be human. Ryan Gosling plays K, a replicant searching for answers about his existence. Villeneuve builds a massive yet empty world, like a futuristic ghost town. The visuals are unforgettable—giant neon ads, endless dust storms, and rainy city streets. Every shot feels deliberate and beautiful. Villeneuve takes his time to tell the story. He lets the audience sit with the questions the film raises. It doesn’t rush to explain everything, which makes it more powerful.
