lev 🖤🦇Jun 17, 2017They have all this futuristic technology but ID photos are low res pixelated pictures on blue screens.
Omar!Apr 24, 2018Good film that hinges on the idea that nobody can tell two white men apart

ethan hawke telling the audience that there is no racism bc "genes is the only thing that matters" in a film with 98.8% white characters who look so similar that the police weren't able to find a suspect even with a photo is one of the most unintentionally hilarious thing…

- Marshall Scott likedGattaca
A truly exceptional film with a wonderful plot full of details and the world building is outstanding. Definitely a top 5 performance by Ethan Hawke. Right behind Training Day, Sinister, Dead Poets Society & the Before Trilogy. Also, one of my favorite Jude Law performances. Lots of heart involved…
moonela lovedGattacaLa vdd las historias de ciencia ficción siempre me han atraído, y la banda sonora de esta es bellísima. Su trama también y el hecho de que al final hayan aliados que piensen que esa discriminación por genética es absurda y hacen pequeños actos de rebeldía, es algo que me encanta.

Gattaca may be all done up in new-fangled notions, but underneath all the guff about designer babies, it rests on a notion that was a staple of the original Star Trek series.

The moody images and Michael Nyman's score aren't enough to salvage this banal 1997 science fiction story.

Andrew Niccol wrote and directed this intelligent and suspenseful science-fiction drama featuring strong performances by Ethan Hawke, Uma Thurman, Alan Arkin, and Gore Vidal.
