Gattaca review by Rubber Ducky
Good sci-fi

I seem to remember this getting slated by the critics when it came out, so I didn't watch it. However, it seems to have stood the test of time, unlike some sci-fi films. The story of genetically engineered human beings ruling the world is not a new one, but it is done well. I actually found myself comparing this vision of future society with Nazi Germany, as there were similarities in the way people who were believed to be 'lesser' mortals (or 'In-valids') were treated by the 'Valids'. It also has an appealing message of 'you can do anything you set out to achieve if you put your mind to it'. Thought Jude Law and Ethan Hawke were particularly good.
