This work analyses the litero-cinematographic Scientific Fiction gender, by Ridley´s Scott movie Blade Runner (1982) cutting out. Its focus is found in the way that this presents the ethic limits of science to the function of a society which mantain itself by the consumism, whose representation hapens in scenography of a forthcoming metropolis (Los Angeles of 2019). The aim is to demonstrate the dichotomic relation in the way the movie was made between mercantilistic production and the author´s movie, and from there its legitimacy as social commitment science fiction, giving way to a reflexive approach concerning ethic limits of science in the actual modern condition. The argument is that, Blade Runner is a work which presents a dispotic future, where the consequences of a capitalistic production based on a science without conscience degraded completely the nature, bringing up great social upsettings and , from the view of the movie unusual retrocessions of labour ways of exploitation. Throughout the research a production process is developed of Blade Runner, his relation and that of Philip K. Dick, the author of the original novel which served as a base, with a scientific Fiction of dispotic approach and the view which is presented by the movie of a future metropolis, in juxtaposition to the concept of liquid-modern society of Zygmunt Bauman. Finally, to point out that, the proposal of Blade Runner offers continuity to Frankenstein novel of Mary Shelley, by bringing up the idea that science needs an ethic consciousness, under Edgar Morin pressuppositios, so that its negative effects do not come back against humanity
