I would never praise the characters, because I find all of them kind of flat, even Deckard. (I mean, Harrison Ford did a bang-up job, but ...there's not a lot bubbling under the surface) The costumes and the art design and the cinematography? Man, Ridley Scott knows how to make a movie.
There's a scene in Watchmen that's a DIRECT shout-out to one of the scenes in Blade Runner: The one where Rorschach is walking along the street and the prostitutes are offering themselves to him and the music is all Vangelis-y. I got so excited from that shout-out. I mean, this movie is referenced constantly in pop-culture, and it's supposed to be one of the biggies in scifi, so...
Incidentally, Blade Runner is the one movie I thought you might be iffy about.
