it is streaming. It's the story of a man who is born into a world of genetic

manipulation

where that's the norm but he was born without it. Because of that he's

discriminated against and he is

unable to get the job wants of going into space.

So our main character decides he's gonna flaunt the system,

get some help, and do whatever it takes to join the company Gattaca

and see the stars. At its heart Gattaca is a very cerebral

film. I mean yes it's a thriller, yes there's a mystery going on but

we're looking at where culture is headed about genetics at that time

and the look of it is gorgeous. We have modern day technology for us

future technology for us when it comes to bio manipulation, DNA sequencing,

but the appearance is all retro. I mean

this style the look of the buildings, the car it's all very 1950's, 60's sci-fi

look and guess what

it still works. And you have to look no further than Ethan Hawke's character

Vincent our main character

about how this film is a thriller. At any moment his scam of

taking on someone's identity and using their DNA could go wrong

and he's going to jail and there's going to be serious repercussions with that.

And the guy that's helping him out the man's whose identity stolen

actually is Jude Law. And I have to tell you Jude Law's character gives this

movie

moments of levity moments of humor it really needs from being just

a little too serious and keeps it

really good. Writer-director Andrew Niccol really has created a film that

has passed the test time.

Gattaca's still looks gorgeous. The ideas, the themes behind the

film still resonate today with our obsession of biotechnology

and I'll honestly would put this film against any sci-fi thriller

that's going on the big screen right now or is along the way. It's

just that good!
