GATTACA (1997)
A must see for those who appreciate subtle movie making.
2 January 2004
When I first saw this movie, many of the people who I saw it with commented on the believability of the movie. They felt that Niccol made little or no effort to stick to the laws of physics when making the movie. I feel that if you walk out of this movie feeling this way, you have missed the whole point. Gattaca is not a science fiction movie, but rather a movie about today's society that uses a futuristic back drop to convey its ideas.
So, if you expect to see Apollo 13 when renting this movie, you will be very disappointed, but if you are rather expecting a movie that makes an Orwellian statement and is set in the future, you will be pleased.
