 The future of the film is now here. June 22, 2008
I think that this is a very profound and entertaining movie. The future is here, from the electric cars to the screening machines. The only part that perplexed me was at the end when our hero and others got on a rocket to outer space dressed as if they were going to a corporate meeting. Has anyone else said anything about this? I can't find a review that does. Am I missing something here? Am I the only person who has seen this movie who thinks that the ending is ridiculous? I really would like for someone to give me their thoughts about this. Other than this, I thought the acting was great and the plot outstanding. Great Movie.

This truly is one of the greatest movies ever, thought provoking, brillant, and inspiring. Never has there been a movie that deserves so much credit. You will not be disappointed, I watch this movie in the when if first came to theathers, and then over and over again on DVD and still enjoy it to date.

I showed this to 5 classes of freshman Biology students, and on the whole, they loved it. Some of them had a hard time following the story, but I think that had more to do with their two-second attention span than it did with the quality of the story.
As one student pointed out, the movie is an odd mix of the 1950's and the future. It is artfully done and imaginative, and still contains enough ethical substance that we can hold a decent conversation. Just the fact that I could still enjoy it after watching it 5 times in a row says something for its entertainment value.
Gattaca: Destined to Become a Classic June 4, 2008

"Gattaca" is the perfect example of how a very good movie can be made without spending tons of money producing it. All the emphasis is placed on the story, a very good story I might add, rather than dazzling special effects and inner ear damaging surround sound. Hollywood should take some lessons from this film and give the public more fare that uplifts and inspires rather than the apocalyptic doom and gloom they keep pushing on us. I try to rent movies on blu ray before I buy them to see if they are worth the additional cost, which is what I did here. The Blockbuster copy I rented, was excellent, has a lot more zip and sparkle than the dvd version that I own. The Amazon price is right and I will be buying the blu ray version.
